The Voice of Baseball Lyrics by The Baseball Project

Grand Salami Time!

2023

He looked down on me from the wrong booth
But I learned to overcome my misguided mistrust
He felt duty bound to share the truth
And that's why he's the best that ever was
Those keen blue eyes saw it all for those of us
Cruising in cars or from comfort of home
All the cathedrals that crumbled and rose
So many come and gone, stars, heroes, and bums
'Cause he's not just the voice of the Dodgers
Not just the voice of the Dodgers
His was the voice of baseball
From Flatbush Avenue, age 21 his first
To McCovey Cove where he called his last
Every Campanella blast and Kershaw curve
He threw a masterpiece every broadcast
And he wasn't blinded by color
He didn't need a color man
He afforded each team equal respect
That's how he earned the love of this Giants fan
'Cause he's not just the voice of the Dodgers
Not just the voice of the Dodgers
His was the voice of baseball
Enough words for so many lifetimes
Tales, tangents, and musings to no end
There'll be some kind of emptiness
Our sport will miss its very best friend
Somewhere in some world, there's a radio booth
A place where there's a soul you know you can trust
Someone who delights in the surprise of truth
And that's why Vin Scully is the best there ever was
He's not just the voice of the Dodgers
Not just the voice of the Dodgers
He is the voice of baseball
He is the voice of baseball
He is the voice of baseball
