Vin Scully might be retired, but he is still offering some fascinating musings about the sport of baseball.

The longtime Los Angeles Dodgers broadcaster tweeted a cool observation on Friday about the Atlanta Braves’ World Series victory this year.

The legendary Hank Aaron, who played 21 seasons for the Braves, died in January at the age of 86. Aaron’s widow Billye was in attendance at Truist Park during the Braves’ World Series run. The fact that the Braves beat the Houston Astros was also probably especially sweet for this reason.

As for Scully, this is an awesome callback to his connection with Aaron. You may recall that he was the one who called Aaron’s record-breaking 715th career home run back in 1974.
