I hope youre enjoying it and I hope Im not interrupting it too much.San Francisco manager Bruce Bochy cherished his chance to visit with Scully last week at Dodger Stadium, and to be part of Scullys special farewell Sunday.This is his last game, and were honored to think hed come up here, 80 years to the day that he became a Giants fan, Bochy said. Thats pretty amazing, isnt it? Not just a tremendous body of work but how long hes been doing it and how great he still is. So its pretty cool.Fans in the sellout crowd turned to look up at Scully with their standing ovation and held signs as a Scully video welcomed fans on the scoreboard shortly before first pitch at AT&T Park, where he has been riding in and out of the ballpark on Hall of Famer Willie Mays golf cart and had some time to reminisce with the Say Hey Kid on Saturday.The 88-year-old Scully politely declined any kind of on-field celebration offered by the Giants.

The sun has broken through the clouds and it is shining on the Giants for the moment.Scullys booth featured a special security detail all weekend, and Scully had several personal drivers to get around the city.

The media cafeteria featured cupcakes with an edible message of Thank You Vin with a tiny microphone.Scully offered some memorable phrases early in his finale:During Hunter Pences first-inning at-bat, Scully noted, He would make coffee nervous. ... Hes just been a wild man swinging the bat this series. Scully noted later in the broadcast Pence is one of his favoritte players because he tries so hard, but noted the right fielder is trying too hard right now.ddddddddddddAfter the game when told of Scullys remarks, Pence smiled and said, Hes pretty funny.A room-service fly ball to Angel Pagan, he called Adrian Gonzalezs fly to left in the second. Later, Scully described Pagans piercing eyes.Fans received a special poster with a photo of Scully in an orange sport coat that read:VIN SCULLY FINAL MLB BROADCAST.SEASONS 67 BROADCASTS 9,000+ BASEBALL FAN 80 YEARSLA VS SFOctober 2, 2016On back, it read, THANK YOU VINEven the out-of-town scoreboard beneath the right-field arcade paid tribute with THX in one slot and VIN below it.Giants CEO Larry Baer and Mays presented a plaque to Scully before the top of the fourth, and Scully apologized for coming back tardy to the broadcast.Theres a game going on, Scully said, Thank you, Larry. He went on to express his gratitude for the Giants hospitality all weekend with him and his family.In the middle of the inning, Giants fans stood again to honor Scully as Frank Sinatras My Way played. Scully, Mays and Baer were shown on the video board, and the Giants announced a plaque to be hung in the visiting broadcast booth.Everybody involved seemed to appreciate the moment, being a tiny part of it or simply playing witness to the end of an era in baseball.Its hard to repeat what happened last Sunday at Dodger Stadium, but the finality now, Dodgers-Giants, I know there might be a tear in Vins eye, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. To be a part of what hes done in his last game, Ill give him a little salute at some point.Afterward, Roberts called it a huge honor to be part of Scullys finale and also sad day, but its something that definitely should be rejoiced. Hes had an amazing career.Scully told his story once more of going to games at the old Polo Grounds, the tale of the little red-headed kid walking by a Chinese laundry, 8 3/4 leaving grammar school on his way home. ... I just fell in love with baseball.Mike Krukow and the other Giants broadcasters told Scully how much they loved him and led Take Me Out to the Ball Game in the adjoining booth from Scully during the seventh-inning stretch.In the sixth, amid all the reflection and fanfare, Scully reminded his audience he was supposed to be handling play-by-play.It has been a party, a retirement party, he said, and it has been marvelous.When the game ended, his day done and career complete, Scully told everybody so long: I have said enough for a lifetime, and for the last time, I wish you all a very pleasant good afternoon.
