Watch: Scully recounts tale of skating with Jackie Robinson

Vin Scully's penchant for soothing narrations and classic anecdotes are still matched by absolutely no one.
The legendary retired broadcaster was a guest of honor Saturday as the Los Angeles Dodgers paid tribute to Jackie Robinson, unveiling a statue in honor of the man who broke baseball's color barrier in 1947.
Scully, though, gave those in attendance - including Robinson's family - a look at a different side of the baseball trailblazer, recounting a comical story of the time he laced up his skates with Robinson and his wife, who was seven-months pregnant at the time.
