MLB Network announced a new original series, “The Sounds of Baseball,” co-hosted by Bob Costas and Tom Verducci. Each episode will focus on one broadcaster, beginning with Vin Scully on Monday night at 5 p.m. PT. The two-hour program will also re-air at 9 p.m.

The retired Los Angeles Dodgers broadcaster is of course renowned for countless calls throughout an illustrious career, and “The Sounds of Baseball” opens with Scully being in the booth when Don Drysdale broke Hall of Famer Walter Johnson’s consecutive scoreless innings streak on June 8, 1968.

Scully calling Sandy Koufax’s perfect game on Sept. 9, 1965, Don Larsen’s perfect game in Game 5 of the 1956 World Series, and Hall of Famer Hank Aaron’s record-breaking home run on April 8, 1974, are some of the many highlights featured throughout “The Sounds of Baseball”.

Beginning with Scully and within each episode, Costas and Verducci will share anecdotes, personal stories, and their thoughts on the impact each broadcaster has had on baseball and generations of fans.

Following Monday’s premiere, future “The Sounds of Baseball episodes” on legendary broadcasters Jack Buck, Bob Ueker and others will be announced at a later date. And preceding the airing of the debut episode, MLB Network is showing multiple Dodgers games with Scully in the booth.

It begins at 9 a.m. PT with Hideo Nomo’s no-hitter at Coors Field, continues with Game 6 of the 1985 National League Championship Series between the Dodgers and St. Louis Cardinals, and concludes with Clayton Kershaw’s no-hitter against the Colorado Rockies.

Kershaw’s gem was the last of 21 no-hitters Scully called in his legendary career. He retired after the 2016 season and has enjoyed family time since entering into retirement. Scully did endure a bit of a scare this year when he was hospitalized after a fall at home.

Of course, he still managed to make light of the incident and slip in a baseball reference. “I won’t be doing anymore head-first sliding,” Scully joked. “I never liked it.”
