Vin Scully: The 'most important home run' call was during a Braves-Dodgers game

ATLANTA - It is not just fans of the Los Angeles Dodgers who are mourning the loss of legendary broadcaster Vin Scully, but all of baseball. Scully's 67-year run as the voice of Los Angeles baseball has had him cross paths with all of Major League Baseball, including the Atlanta Braves.

During his nearly seven-decade career, Scully would call countless home runs. For Dodgers fans, they may consider Kirk Gibson's two-run walk-off home run in Game 1 of the 1988 World Series his most iconic, but it was a game in Atlanta against the Braves where he said he would call the most important home run in history.
