Thursday BP: Remembering one of Vin Scully’s best stories

Good morning, baseball fans.

The baseball world was rocked this week by the news of the passing of longtime Los Angeles Dodgers broadcaster and overall beloved sports icon Vin Scully. He had a way with words and an uncanny sense of timing, weaving in interesting stories about opposing players without missing a single pitch.

Many have been sharing the video of the time the Dodgers were facing the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2015 and Scully delved into a story about how Jonny Gomes had survived a wolf attack.

But one that is perhaps best remembered by fans of the San Francisco Giants was the time in 2016 when Scully told the tall tale about Madison Bumgarner saving a baby rabbit.
