Hale, D-backs make pilgrimage to see Scully
- Updated: September 8, 2016
LOS ANGELES — D-backs manager Chip Hale led a contingent of D-backs players, which included Daniel Hudson and Jake Lamb, up to the Dodger Stadium press box prior to Wednesday’s batting practice to visit broadcasting legend Vin Scully, who is retiring following the season after 67 years in the booth.
“It was great,” Hale said. “The amazing thing about going up to meet him, and I told him this, there aren’t many baseball memories that I have that his voice is not associated with. It’s amazing. It’s sad to know he won’t be doing it anymore, but it’s also an honor just to even be in his presence.”
