Vin Scully. A funny man.

I considered creating a new blog where I would chronicle an entire season's worth of the wit by the voice of the Dodgers, Vin Scully. I decided against it, not wanting to feel compelled to listen to all the 130 or so games that he does. So I'll just record the greatest of his genius here at Burghers as it occurs.

Tonight against the Rockies, Mr. Scully delivered his first great zinger of the young season. The Dodgers pitcher, Randy Wolf, was at bat in the second inning and bounced an easy grounder to the Rockies pitcher, Jorge De La Rosa, for what would have been the third out of the inning. De La Rosa fielded it cleanly, but then made a doofus toss high above the first baseman's head and everybody was safe.

Mr. Scully's lead in to the replay:

"Your eight-year-old would have made that play."
