Los Angeles Dodgers Spanish-language broadcaster Jaime Jarrín was the recipient of the Latino Spirit Award from the California Latino Caucus.

The honor recognizes Jarrín’s work in radio broadcasting and philanthropy. What stands out about the award is that it features a bear made in the Huichol Chaquira art style.

Jarrín, the longest-tenured active radio baseball broadcaster, is now in his 63rd season calling games for the Dodgers. The 85-year-old revealed this past offseason that the club gave him a “lifetime contract,” allowing him to remain in the booth for as long as he pleases.

Over the course of his illustrious career, Jarrín has called three perfect games, nearly two-dozen no-hitters, 26 All-Star Games and 29 World Series.

Among the many accolades Jarrín has earned include the Ford C. Frick Award from the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1998, becoming just the second Spanish-language broadcaster to do so.

In 2002, Jarrín was inducted into the California Broadcasters Association Hall of Fame, and the following year, he was honored in the Hispanic Heritage Baseball Museum.

Jarrín one of several employees to receive Dodgers World Series ring

The Dodgers recently held a special ceremony for employees to receive their 2020 World Series ring, and Jarrín was part of the group.

Also presented a ring was Jarrín’s son, Jorge, who retired earlier this year after spending 17 seasons with the organization. Team photographer Jon SooHoo, former general manager Ned Colletti and former team reporter Alanna Rizzo were among the other recipients.
