The Dodgers will hold a ceremony at 11:15 a.m. Monday to dedicate the newly renamed Vin Scully Avenue. The Los Angeles City Council made it official today.

From DailyNews.com:

The Dodgers earlier this week replaced the address on its “Welcome to Dodgers” entrance sign to read 1000 Vin Scully Avenue, in anticipation of today’s vote.

Several speakers today opposed changing the street’s name in honor of the Hall of Fame broadcaster who began announcing Dodger games when Harry S. Truman was president.
