It’s a locker room with no real parameters, open 24/7 and extending far beyond the walls of stadiums. It has changed the way athletes voice their thoughts and how fans interact with them. And this is just the beginning.

84-year-old baseball broadcasting legend Vin Scully reads a Tweet on air with adorable results
For the uninitiated, Vin Scully is the type of baseball voice that really takes you back. Listening to him, you need not see the action on the field at all. Vin Scully is a sunny summer afternoon. He’s the bag of Cracker Jacks tossed your way by one of the many vendors wandering the seating rows of Chavez Ravine. Also, other baseball metaphors. He’s all of it. So to hear him describe a tweet sent from new LA Dodger Shane Victorino, calling it a “twitter,” or “twit,” is basically just the most precious thing ever.
Vin Scully’s amazing. A man from a bygone era, who remains revered for what he’s done for so long. But really, this video is far too amusing anyhow.
