  • Vin Scully and Sandy Koufax early in their legendary careers! Original full radio broadcast from the Dodgers radio network, originally preserved by WOKO, Albany, NY. Tuesday night, June 4, 1957, the Dodgers return from a 9 game PA trip to come home to face the Cubs, with a young Sandy Koufax taking the mound. After the intro by Jerry Doggett, an also young Vin Scully (starts at 6:43) calls the first 3 innings, with some middle-innings work later; Doggett does the last 6 innings, along with some between-innings work also. Al Helfer also contributes between innings, and does the quick post-game at the end.
    **Spoilers - Game results below! **
    Dodgers prevailed, 7-5, as Sandy got the win and Clem Labine got the save. Campanella hits a 2-run double off the scoreboard in the first, and also there were 4 home runs: Snider in the 3rd, Hodges in the 5th, Speake of the Cubs in the 6th and Ernie Banks in the 8th. Also, Joe Pignatano makes his major league debut (discussion starting at 1:07:14) after Campy is hit by a pitch in the 3rd inning. The sounds of the fans, vendors and Ebbets announcer Tex Rickards (first heard at 4:10) are heard throughout the game. A classic time capsule of the Dodgers' last season in Brooklyn, enjoy!

      I'm a Giants fan and have lived my whole life in the SF Bay Area . Even though LA and SF are both in California the cities are separated by over 400 miles. When I was a young boy around 8 or 9 listening to my Giants on my transistor radio during night games especially in the summer I would often come across a faint call of the Dodger games being broadcast from LA. I can still hear Vin Scully's voice in my head calling the game. I didn't listen long though because I thought it would be bad luck against my Giants to listen to the enemy Dodgers! RIP Vin Scully you without any doubt whatsoever were the best that ever was.

      There are certain people in sports who are not bigger than the game so to speak but they are so iconic that they are bigger than the others. Bob Uecker is another great announcer who has taken a small part of the game and made it HIS! Both Vin Scully and Bob Uecker were, no ARE ICONS in baseball. Bob Uecker spent his life bashing himself, Vin Scully was just Vin Scully. Both are characters and both are so beloved they transcend the games and their jobs. They are true icons! 👍 RIP Mr. Scully🕊🙏🕊🕊🙏🕊🙏 You may have left this 🌎 World 🌎 but you will NEVER EVER BE FORGOTTEN! God Bless you, your family, and all of us, we could really use it right now.

    Vin Scully, Ernie Banks, Sandy Koufax, Don Zimmer, Ebbets Field....8:00pm scheduled White Sox games in 1957 Chicago & Billy Pierce was pitching in old Comiskey THAT night?! I didn't know Brooklyn played games in Jersey? What a time capsule masterpiece. One of the best treasures I've ever heard.

      Anthony: I was born in Milwaukee 51. First ball game i ever saw was when i was 4, Dad took me old County Stadium and saw my all time hero Hank Aaron hiit a home run! After moving to LA in 57, I recall my very first ball gsme I heard at age 8 in 1959 on my old AM radio: The Dodgers beat the Braves on the last day of the season in the old LA Coliseum in the 12th inning, and heard Vin Scully's famous call after the 3rd Braves out, "Its on to Chicago!
      where we beat the White Sox in the World Series in 59.. Wonderful, memories! I was dissappointed the Dodgers beat my Milwaukee Braves, and stayed a Milwaukee Braves fan for several yeas til they moved to Atlanta. But slowly and surely got wooed into becoming a Dodgers fan for life, thanks to Vin Scully, Koufax, Drysdale, Wills., Gilliam, Roseboro, Davis et al.

    Next best thing to a time machine! This is incredible. You get to hear a broadcast legend (Vin Scully) in his younger days, some future Hall of Famers in action plus all of the atmosphere of Ebbets Field: PA man Tex Rickards barking out the batting order in the background, Organist Gladys Gooding with the National Anthem and of course the call of "Cold Beer" by the guys hawking it in the stands.

It started with a game against the Phils then across the state for 4 with the Bucs and then back across the state for 4 more games with the Phils. Scully was so excellent. A joy to listen to. Note that back then just prior to the westward migration, "out west" was Cincinnati and Milwaukee etc.

      A Wally Moon shot. I like that. But I did see Wally play one off the net. This was baseballs golden era.

      We are about same age. I am in Connecticut, saw 2 games in Brooklyn at Ebbets Field in1957. The baseball layout of the Coliseum fascinated me and I got to see it on TV during the 1959 World Series. Both of us were lucky to see parts of Baseball's Lost Worlds,

      I grew up with Vin's voice in the background every evening every April through Sept. Those broadcasts kinda made you feel like all was well in the world. Comforting.

    Very interesting and enjoyable. I was a Cub fan in 1957 and enjoyed this broadcast. I think Bob Speake hit the first home run for the Cubs in the 1957 season. I remember listening to Jack Quinlan and Lou Boudreau on WGN radio.

    In 1958 me and my prized transistor radio used to pick up those games at night from Pittsburgh Pa…what a thrill and sense of accomplishment for a 10 year old. Tried for Cubs & White Sox games but without much success.

    Oddly, Pignatano had actually played in a game more than a month prior to this one, pinch-running on April 28 against Pittsburgh. But this was his first significant action and first at-bats.

    Its truly amazing, I am watching a live game 2016 LA Dodgers vs Tampa Bay Rays in Vin Scully's last broadcasting season. Same voice, same style all those years. Does anybody out there have an even older broadcast from Vin? He started in 1950 right? Do none of those broadcasts survive?

    please keep these coming these are great and only 5 cents to ride the trolley to Ebbets for this game. I remember Jerry Doggett and Vin Scully worked together for decades into LA. years. Wonder if they took the trolley or dodged it for this game.

    Wow, Dick Drott on the mound for the Cubs! Had a good rookie year at 15-11, led the league in walks... then had an arm injury and his career fizzled out a few years later. Found this on Wikipedia: On April 24, 1957, Drott was ejected from a game for using a wheelchair to wheel Moe Drabowsky to first base after Drabowsky claimed he was hit on the foot by a pitch. (!!!!)

    simply awesome and to think my dad listened to the scully/doggett in brooklyn in the 50's and ironically,we moved to the west coast when i was 11 in the late 70's when phoenix had no baseball team or cable tv,so no more mets for me.i was crushed.the ONLY game available was on a.m. radio out of los angeles..you guessed it,the dodgers and the same scully/doggett combo my dad listened to 20+ years before..funny how life is
