and he rounds the bases! What a memorable day for him. One he'll tell his children and grandchildren about (or, if he doesn't have any, any youngster who will listen someday).

I'm in a pickle...........I live in L.A. and LOVE my Dodgers. Having said that, I love the Giants too! When they win it makes it worse for the Dodgers.

I love all the California sports teams because I love it here- here in this place that I've called home since 1988!

First three-game series this year happens as late as June 13th. Then there's a three-game series in July 11th and then seven games in September. 13 total. Manfred killed the intensity of this division rivalry when inter-league play was expanded. Crosstown and statewide games made sense: Dodgers/Angels, Giants/Athletics, Indians/Reds, Cubs/WhiteSox, Pirates/Phillies, etc., but that's as far as it should have gone.

I love to visit L.A.

An "infield the park home run" in my book.
