Watching/listening to a Los Angeles Dodgers game called by Vin Scully is quite a treat. There is no washed-up mediocre player interjecting their two cents and no lame jokes. It's just baseball and talk about baseball. NON. STOP.

If you've never had the pleasure, here's a sampling of what kind of information you get:

-Jamie Moyer is not only the second oldest MLB pitcher to make his All Star Game debut, but he is also one of only two pitchers to be at least 23 games under .500 in his career and then become at least 23 games over .500 in the same career (duh). He is currently 60 games over .500 and has 250 career wins.

-Ryan Howard is from St. Louis and has an open stance that almost appears like he is sitting in a chair, but not quite.

-The Dodgers lead the league in innings of 3 or more runs. The Phillies are second in the same category.

-Raul Ibanez turned 37 last Tuesday and was born in New York City. His mom was pregnant with him when she, his dad and 2 brothers emigrated from Cuba.

-Shane Victorino was once in the Dodger organization, but has a bad hip, so Eric Bruntlett is starting in his place tonight.

-Chris Coste was just the third major leaguer to hit his first career homerun past the age of thirty. By the way he lives in Fargo, North Dakota (Vin says: "Did you see that movie?") and spells his name C-O-S-T-E.

-Eric Milton's dad was a professor at Penn State and he studied kiniesiology.

By the way, there is one out in the top of the 2nd inning. This game is about 15% complete and Vin has already dug deeper than most play-by-play announcer/color commentator duos could in an entire game. And he's 81 years old and in his 60th year of broadcasting Dodgers games. Awesome.
