Bernie Williams, the five-time All-Star and four-time World Series champion with the Yankees, was on-hand in Cooperstown to play the national anthem in advance of his longtime teammate Derek Jeter’s induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame.

In his post-playing career, Williams has established himself as an accomplished jazz guitarist. He was nominated for a Latin Grammy award in 2009.

Williams has previously played the national anthem at a number of New York sporting events, including multiple Yankees games and a Knicks game at Madison Square Garden.

For his performance in Cooperstown, Williams was joined by Richie Cannata on saxophone.
