Vin Scully joined by former Dodgers Fernando Valenzuela, Steve Yeager during World Series 1st pitch

LOS ANGELES -- For 67 years Vin Scully provided the soundtrack to the Dodgers, first in Brooklyn and then in Los Angeles.

He rarely called in for a reliever, though that changed Wednesday night in Game 2 of the World Series.

Much to the delight of the crowd packing Dodger Stadium, Scully came out to throw the ceremonial first pitch. He carried a microphone in one hand and a baseball in the other, fitting for the announcer whose voice reverberated for years on transistor radios throughout Dodger Stadium.

Scully went into a windup and stopped, feigning a rotator cuff injury. He said he would have to call to the dugout for relief.

And who should come out? None other than Fernando Valenzuela, the Dodger great who now works as a Spanish language announcer for the team.

Valenzuela went into his classic windup and threw the ball to a familiar target, Steve Yeager, who spent 14 years as catcher for the Dodgers.
