Happy Vin Scully Day!

It's good to be governor.

Per a press release:

Senate President pro Tempore Kevin de León (D-Los Angeles), in his capacity as Acting Governor, issued a proclamation today declaring July 8, 2016 as “Vin Scully Day” in the State of California to honor the legendary Los Angeles Dodgers announcer.

Below is an excerpt of the proclamation:

Chicago Tribune columnist Phil Rosenthal described the Scully story as about how “preparation, hard work, humility, unadorned precision – and knowing when it’s best not to speak at all – can make you better.
