Listen to Vin Scully tell a splendid Dodgers holiday tale

There is a specific recipe to creating a classic holiday story: A little winter whimsy, a crisis that needs to be solved using holiday magic and a venerable voice to tell the tale.

It follows the adventures of bobbleheads Justin Turner and Adrian Gonzalez as they travel up to the North Pole to rescue garden gnome Tommy Lasorda, who has been mistaken for one of Santa's elves. And it's all told by the most venerable voice of them all, Vin Scully:
