85-year-old Dodgers broadcaster Vin Scully is returning to Cooperstown in 2014.

Dodgers broadcaster Vin Scully has joined the lineup of special guests for the Aug. 2, 2014 celebration concert to honor the 75th Anniversary of the National Baseball Hall Of Fame and Museum.

Scully will record the introduction and opening segment of the concert that will include the world renowned Boston Pops Esplanade Orchestra, which will serve as the “house band” for the 75th Anniversary Concert.

“The Hall of Fame is the cathedral of baseball, and it is an honor to be a part of the 75th Anniversary Concert in Cooperstown,” Scully said in a statement. “This memorable event will be a fitting celebration of the National Pastime and the Museum that preserves the legacy of the game.”

Scully will return to the booth for his 65th season with the Dodgers in 2014. The 1982 Hall of Fame inductee turns 86 in November.
