Dodger fans who were around in the early ’60s vividly recall President John F. Kennedy‘s famous proclamation: “I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth.” – a proclamation which indeed came to […]

If you are among the few remaining fans that MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred still has, you probably won’t be much longer.
