Notable Calls
Calling baseball games for more than 50 years, Scully has witnessed and given voice to some of the game's most memorable moments. Among the most famous were his announcing Sandy Koufax's 1965 perfect game, Hank Aaron's 715 home run, and Kirk Gibson's walk-off World Series home run. Scully also called the sixth game of the 1986 World Series when Bill Buckner let a ball go through his legs at the end of the game, losing the game and eventually the series for the Boston Red Sox. -
