Check out our new look!

When we started this podcast, it was all about the Dodgers and the Angels. The Dodgers have won 3 World Series titles since we started this podcast (hmmm… good luck charm?) and the Angels, well, the Angels haven’t really done anything. They have been through three managers and technically Anthony Rendon still “plays” for them. So, Jeff had enough and has switched his focus. He still is an Angels fan, but now he is a San Diego Padres fan! Yes, you read that right. Talk about a new level to Sibling Rivalry. Join us this season as we talk Dodgers and Padres!

Mr. Dodger

I often say I have been a Dodger fan since I was in the womb. It seems like an exaggeration, but it is really true. I don’t remember a time that I have not loved the Dodgers. When I was two years old, Tommy Lasorda became the manager of the Dodgers. My first memories of baseball include Tommy. He is one of the reasons I will always bleed Dodger blue. He was a constant present in the dugout. You knew when he was mad and you knew when he was happy. Seeing him jump and skip out to the field after Kirk Gibson hit his 9th inning home run in game one of the 1988 World Series is always one of my favorite memories. I saw him take the mound with Orel Hershersier in 2018 to recreate that 1988 magic on opening day. Even though, it was from a distance I loved seeing Tommy. I never had the honor of meeting Tommy Lasorda, but I feel like he is a part of my family. When I heard the news that he had died, I cried. I am teary eyed as I write this. I turned on MLB and saw the outpouring of love for him and I cried harder. Then I had the thought this is silly, why are you crying. I tried to push back the emotion, but then later I realized Tommy Lasorda has always been a fixture in my life. I watch most games on television, but I loved when I would catch glimpses of Tommy. It was a reminder he was still here and still bleeding Dodger blue. Tommy Lasorda is a baseball legend. He loved the game of baseball and he loved the Dodgers. He was an ambassador for the sport. Even though he led the Dodgers to four pennants, two world series championships, his greatest accomplishment he said was winning the gold medal at the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, Australia. Tommy started his career with the Dodgers in 1949 as a pitcher. He spent most of his time in the minor leagues. He made one start for the Brooklyn Dodgers, but was quickly sent back to the minors to make room for a guy named Sandy Koufax. In 1961, he was hired as a scout and then became a minor league manager in 1965. In 1976, he became the manager of the Dodgers. He was a fixture in the dugout. His confrontations with the umpires were legendary. His lips were easy to read and my dad said Tommy was using motivational buzz words. He was not a fan of mascots and almost killed the Phillie Phanatic. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vX4L2LHGs98) Tommy had a larger than life personality. He was a great motivator, but could also cut you down to size. I loved everything about Tommy. He once said, “I bleed Dodger blue, and when I die I am going to the big Dodger in the sky.” Dodger stadium is blue heaven on earth and now Tommy is with the big Dodger in the sky. I will miss you Tommy. I will keep rooting for the Dodgers win or lose and will always bleed Dodger Blue.

30 Jerseys from 29 teams.

Jeff here….

During the ALCS, I tweeted at the Tampa Bay Rays (@RaysBaseball) that if they beat the Asstericks I would buy a TB hat, and if they swept them I would get a jersey. Well they didn’t sweep, so no jersey. But it made me think about what player jersey I would get from each team, except the ASStericks.

Below by league and division are the players I would pick from each team. I would probably pick an alternate jersey instead of the standard home white or road gray, as available. The players are only from the 2020 rosters. Let me know what your choices would be…

Dodgers – Max Muncy

Padres – Fernando Tatis, Jr.

They Did It!

The Los Angeles Dodgers have been to the World Series in three of the last four years. We all know what happened in 2017. The Assterisks were cheating. They knew what pitches Kershaw was throwing. Then 2018, the Red Sox came in and beat the Dodgers in five. The Red Sox were just the better team. Last year. the Nationals took the Dodgers out in the division series. Then comes along the 2020 season. We didn’t even think there would be a baseball season. Luckily, we were treated a 60 game season. 60 games doesn’t seem long because as a baseball fan we are used to 162 games, but 60 games worked. There were a lot of precautions and bubbles. Teams often didn’t have a day off and it was a sprint to the finish. The Dodgers added Mookie Betts to the lineup this season and for the next 11 years. He was the conduit to help the Dodgers have the best record at 43-17 in baseball. The Dodgers started the wild card beating the Milwaukee Brewers in two games. Then the Dodgers met the San Diego Padres in the National League Division Series. They beat the Padres in 3 straight games. Next up was the Atlanta Braves. The Braves gave the Dodgers a run for their money. They came back from a 3-1 deficit to beat the Braves in seven. The World Series match up was against the Tampa Bay Rays. The Rays are a scrappy team with names that most people don’t know with the exception of Blake Snell and Charlie Morton. Now everybody knows Randy Arozarena. In the World Series, Clayton Kershaw went 2-0. A postseason monkey that had been on his back is now gone. He looked great. His postseason performance was great. His ERA was 2.31 with a 0.86 WHIP. We are happy for Clayton Kershaw. He has been through a lot over the years and a lot of naysayers saying that he chokes in the postseason. That is over because Clayton Kershaw is a World Series Champion! The series went 6 games. Julio Urias was awesome. In the World Series, he ended up with a 2.57 ERA. He pitched 7 innings with 13 strikeouts and a .71 WHIP. It was fitting he was on the mound for the last out of the World Series. Corey Seager was the MVP of the NLCS and the World Series. A rare feat. Orel Hershiser was the MVP of the NLCS and the World Series in 1988. Seager had a .400 batting average with 2 HR and 5 RBIs.

As a fan of the Dodgers for as long as I can remember, I am so excited for the Dodgers to win the World Series. There has been a lot of heart ache being a Dodgers fan, but being a true fan means rooting for the team win or lose. Baseball is definitely a love affair. It is the highest of highs and lowest of lows. This year we ride out the season on a high. So excited for the Dodgers and can’t wait for the 2021 season.

Game Called

Game Called. Across the field of play
the dusk has come, the hour is late.
The fight is done and lost or won,
the player files out through the gate.
The tumult dies, the cheer is hushed,
the stands are bare, the park is still.
But through the night there shines the light,
home beyond the silent hill.

Game Called. Where in the golden light
the bugle rolled the reveille.
The shadows creep where night falls deep,
and taps has called the end of play.
The game is done, the score is in,
the final cheer and jeer have passed.
But in the night, beyond the fight,
the player finds his rest at last.

Game Called. Upon the field of life
the darkness gathers far and wide,
the dream is done, the score is spun
that stands forever in the guide.
Nor victory, nor yet defeat
is chalked against the players name.
But down the roll, the final scroll,
shows only how he played the game.

–Grantland Rice
