For one Dodgers fan, Vin Scully eased the pain of chemotherapy and leukemia. 

“I was at USC Norris Cancer Hospital for days and months at a time.  I had so much chemo that it was hard to concentrate on anything, it does that to you.  But every night I would watch the Dodgers and listen to Vin. It was the only thing I could actually concentrate on,” said Dolores Anguiano-Torres. “It was so comforting to hear his voice in the midst of the chaos my life was at the time. I was a wife and mom of three small children; it was a very difficult time.  But my constant was Vin, listening to him was so soothing to my tired soul.”

Thank you to Vin, for talking me through one of the most difficult times of my life.

This is just one of thousands of stories of how Vin Scully has touched the lives of Dodgers fans – and we want to hear yours. 

What will you remember most about the legendary announcer? Did you listen to him late at night, past your bedtime? Did you have a chance meeting with him that you still talk about? 

We’ll collect a selection of these in a book, which we will hand-deliver to Scully.
