When Vin Scully calls his final game for the Dodgers on Oct. 2, it will mark the end of an era for baseball fans. A staple in the Dodgers broadcast booth for 67 seasons, Scully is ready to ride off into the sunset after one last year behind the microphone.As baseball prepares its formal goodbye to Scully, much has been said about his one-of-a-kind career. When taking a step back to take it all in, however, a few things stand out as especially remarkable. And so without further ado, its time for some amazing facts about Vin Scully and his career:Vin Scullys first season in 1950 was Connie Macks last as an MLB manager. Mack was born during the Civil War, while Abraham Lincoln was president.When Vin Scully first walked into the Dodgers broadcast booth, the transistor radio was still four years away from being invented. At that time, gasoline cost 27 cents a gallon, a postage stamp cost 3 cents, and the minimum wage was 75 cents per hour.Vin Scully has called games started by both Preacher Roe and Julio Urías, born 80 years apart.Vin Scully is the youngest person to ever broadcast a World Series game. He was just 25 in 1955 when the Brooklyn Dodgers defeated the New York Yankees in seven games.Vin Scully has broadcast 20 no-hitters, including three perfect games: Don Larsen in 1956, Sandy Koufax in 1965 and Dennis Martinez in 1991. He also called 12 All-Star Games, ? Hank Aarons 715th career home run, ? Bill Buckners error in the 1986 World Series, ? Barry Bonds record-breaking 71st home run in 2001, and countless other memorable moments.For Scullys last game on Oct. 2, his Dodgers travel to San Francisco to take on the rival Giants. At that point, he will have served as an announcer for the team some 24,274 days -- so fans are sure to cherish these last few. Patrik Laine Jets Jersey .
