Angels pay tribute to Vin Scully prior to his final game at the 'Big A'

Despite being Dodgers' blue through and through, Vin Scully has a bit of history with Angel Stadium having shared the commentary booth with former President Ronald Reagan during the 1989 MLB All-Star Game. Prior to his final call at the 'Big A,' Angels players and manager Mike Scioscia paid tribute to the Hall of Fame play-by-play man.

"You can say one word and he can bring a story about it," said Mike Trout before the game. "It's pretty special."

Trout, along with Scioscia, Jered Weaver and Alfredo Griffin presented Scully with autographed gear from his alma mater of Fordham University, a souvenir silver dish from the Pennsylvania hotel Scully once worked at, a 1950s CBS microphone engraved with the date of Scully's first call on a college football game and framed box score of the '89 All-Star Game he called at Angel Stadium.

"I've been fortunate enough to get to know Vin not as a public figure but as the person that he is and I don't know if you're ever going to find a more genuine person than Vin," said Scioscia, a former Dodger. "He truly has a passion for life, he loves this game of baseball, he loves people, he's been a mentor to a lot of us without even trying to be."

Recalling his first memory of Scully, Scioscia was reminded of coming to his first Dodgers' camp as a nervous rookie. Scioscia said he was put at ease instantly when Scully walked straight up to him, called him by name and asked him how he was doing.

There will never be another quite like Vin.
