Dodgers announcer Vin Scully out of hospital

Hall of Fame announcer Vin Scully was released from the hospital Friday after bumping his head, and is looking forward to broadcasting a Dodgers exhibition game this weekend.

The 82-year-old Scully went to the hospital Thursday night as a precaution after he got up from bed too quickly, fell and hit his head, team spokesman Josh Rawitch said.

Scully plans to work Sunday’s Dodgers-Indians game in Arizona, his first spring training game this year.

He is starting his 61st season with the team. He has been working on a series of one-year contracts and has said he’s not sure what he will do after this season.

Thank heavens he’s okay! Now let’s play ball!
