Kirk Gibson's legendary 1988 World Series walk-off home run, called by Vin Scully!

I remember my dad losing his mind and running around the house screaming in happiness. One of my favorite memories of him.

After calling the home run, there were 60 plus seconds of silence from Sculley. Nothing but the cheering. That’s pure genius.

To me, Gibson pumping his arm as he rounds second base is one of the most iconic moments in Dodgers history...

I was eight years old when I watched this on TV. My family had immigrated to the United States just one year before. I never really felt like I fit in, either in school or the country. But I remember watching this game, talking about it with my friends -- and it was the first time I truly felt American. Whenever I rewatch this clip and hear Vin Scully's commentary, it brings back that special moment as though it were yesterday. Godspeed, Mr. Scully. You really did exemplify the best of our great country. Your voice will live on. I know I'll never forget it.

My dad and I were A's fans and we saw that hit and my dad said: "If you have to lose, thats how. that was the greatest at bat ever. The man had no legs." and it was the greatest at bat ever. I's the best memory I have of my dad.

The best thing about Vin….he always let the moment speak for itself

I just heard the news about Vin Scully. I didn’t get to hear him a lot but this is easily one of his greatest calls ever and I’m sad to hear him pass. Rest In Peace to the greatest commentator ever

Gibson’s celebratory gestures as he’s rounding second base still get me to this day

What made Vin Scully so great? After "She is gone," he was smart enough to be quiet for a full minute and ten seconds and let the video and crowd noise tell the whole story.

This, boys and girls, is that rare perfect moment in life, where everything comes together. The biggest stage. The best players on the best teams. Kirk Gibson, an MVP that could barely walk, coming in to face the future Hall of Famer, and best reliever in the game at the time, Dennis Eckersley. And the immortal Vin Scully calling the action. If it’s any other pitcher, the moment, while still great, is not legendary. A healthy Gibson, and the moment, while great, is not legendary. Any other announcer blabbing through the moment-it’s still memorable, but it’s not legendary. LaRussa against Lasorda. Two chess masters. The entire state of California rocking, each picking their team, Oakland or Los Angeles. And a moment that will reverberate through the ages. How can you not be romantic about baseball?

One of the greatest moments in sports history

Easily one of the best moments in baseball.

Look how beautiful this baseball clip is. No distracting graphics, no constant replays, no advertisements behind home plate, no advertisements on the outfield wall, this is the baseball of my youth.

The 2 big fist pumps as he rounds 2nd base is such an iconic sports image

And now, one of the best to ever do it has passed away. He made so many great calls. May he rest in peace. Thanks for the memories, Vin.

Rest in peace, Vin Scully

“Gibson shaking his left leg, making it quiver like a horse trying to get rid of a troublesome fly” man was a poet

I'm British, and I was at that game! It's been so hard over the years trying to describe the last few moments of the game to fellow brits who have no concept of Baseball and the build-up to that moment. I love sport in all its' forms and this was one of the greatest moments in the history of sport and I feel very privileged to have been there. Incidentally, I did not get home to Huntington Beach until the early hours of the next morning. Dodger fans wouldn't leave the stadium and the car parks after the game and we all sat around just savouring the victory and what we had just witnessed. Happy, happy memories !!

This is pure artistry, both by Vin and Kirk. One of the all-time great baseball moments.

The voice of summer, has left us. The very voice of baseball, the pastime of our childhood, that defined our generation, and propelled so many fans to adulation and young athletes to eventual would be stardom, is gone. Our game, our sport, our lives, are all the better for simply having the honor and privilege to have listened to him announce sporting events over the years. Millions upon millions of young boys and girls alike, were introduced to the greatest sport in the world, just by hearing Vin describe the game to us. Play by play, pitch by pitch, hit by hit, run by run, out by out, Scully just made the game easier to grasp, easier to learn. And for that, all the fans and players alike, of this wonderful sport, called our national pastime, can simply say, Mr. Scully, Thank You.
