Literally millions of Dodger fans grew-up, as did I, listening to Vin Scully on radio and television, verbally painting a picture of games so vividly that we were metaphorically transported from all parts of the country to Ebbets Field or Dodger Stadium, or Forbes Field in Pittsburgh, or Crosley Field in Cincinnati, or Shea Stadium […]

After getting off to a smoking hot 13-2 start to the 2021 season, the defending World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers went into a horrible slump, during which they lost 15 of 20 games. That ugly skid finally came to an end when they knocked off an eight-game winning streak. If this past weekend’s four-game […]

There wasn’t a whole lot for Dodger fans to cheer about on Saturday with their team’s brutal 11-6 loss to the San Francisco Giants in front of a COVID-19 record-setting sellout crowd of 19,097 at Dodger Stadium; not even with the much-anticipated returns of Dodgers All-Star outfielder/first baseman Cody Bellinger and rookie sensation Zach McKinstry […]

The Dodgers were robbed … and it was the perfect crime. After an improbable/impossible (as Vin would say) three-run home run by Dodgers pinch-hitter Austin Barnes with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning on Friday night to turn a 5-2 deficit into a 5-5 tie, the Dodgers came a half-inch shy of […]

It’s no secret that new Dodger and future Hall of Famer Albert Pujols is a slow runner. VERY slow. In fact, over his brilliant 21-year Cooperstown-bound career, the beloved and highly respected 41-year-old Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic native, has a total of 115 stolen bases, and only five over the last three seasons and none with […]

Unless you’ve been stranded on a desert island (or without cellphone service) for the last month, you are probably well aware that Dodgers three-time All-Star and two-time Trevor Hoffman Reliever of the Year award-winner Kenley Jansen has been good for the past month. Exceptionally good. Since May 5, the 33-year-old Willemstad, Curacao native, who the Dodgers […]

While no-hitters are being thrown over home plate, six so far this year to be exact, 68-year-old Major League umpire Joe West broke and established a new record of his own on May 25, 2021, when he umpired his 5,376th regular-season game behind home plate, snapping a tie with Hall of Fame MLB umpire Bill […]

The Dodgers return home to open a seven-game homestand beginning on Thursday evening, May 27, with four games against the San Francisco Giants (May 27-30) and three against the St. Louis Cardinals (May 31-June 2). Tickets remain available at Dodgers.com/Tickets, including in the expanded fully-vaccinated only sections in the Home Run Seats, Right Field Pavilion, […]
