Los Angeles Dodgers longtime play-by-play announcer Vin Scully died on Tuesday at the age of 94.

Scully was the Dodgers' main broadcaster from 1950 when they played in Brooklyn all the way until his retirement in 2016 at the age of 88. His association with the Dodgers is the longest by a broadcaster in the history of sports - he called games for both Jackie Robinson and Corey Seager.

The Dodgers announced his passing late Tuesday evening on Twitter.

"We have lost an icon," Dodgers president and CEO Stan Kasten said in a statement. "The Dodgers' Vin Scully was one of the greatest voices in all of sports. He was a giant of a man, not only as a broadcaster, but as a humanitarian. He loved people. He loved life. He loved baseball and the Dodgers. And he loved his family. His voice will always be heard and etched in all of our minds forever. I know he was looking forward to joining the love of his life, Sandi. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family during this very difficult time. Vin will truly be missed."

Scully was the broadcaster for 19 Hall of Famers that donned the Dodgers uniform during his tenure with the team.

Aside from calling Dodgers games, Scully was on the mic for 25 World Series, 20 no-hitters, 12 All-Star Games, and three perfect games. He also called NFL games from 1975 to 1982, including Dwight Clark's catch in the 1981 NFC Championship Game, as well as professional tennis and the PGA Tour. 

Perhaps his most notable calls are from Sandy Koufax's perfect game in 1965, Hank Aaron breaking Babe Ruth's home run record in 1974, Bill Buckner's error in Game 6 of the 1986 World Series and Kirk Gibson's walk-off home run in Game 1 of the 1988 Fall Classic.

Scully was named the Ford C. Frick Award winner by the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1982, and he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2016.

Scully is widely regarded as one of the best broadcasters, if not the best, in the history of sports.
