Vin Talking too Much

It's not a Dodgers broadcast until Vin Scully says "half a dozen". He got it in early tonight as Nomar Garciaparra came up in the second inning with six home runs on the season. We also got this gem, however:

It took a miracle catch to save Jeff Francis bacon on that play.

And yes, Scully left off the apostrophe.

Vin's just a Renaissance kind of guy.

Jeff Francis bacon. Yum.

I'm sure Vince used the apostrophe: Jeff Francis' bacon. It's acceptable style (though not universally employed) to leave out the "s" following the apostrophe in words ending in "s" and "z."

No, I listened twice. He said Francis, not Francises.
