On the heels of what many are calling the single worst Dodgers loss of the 2024 regular season (or longer), Dodger fans received some much-needed good news late Saturday evening.

(Read More)The Force Be With May
The last time 27-year-old Dodgers right-hander Dustin May threw a pitch in an MLB game was on May 17, 2023. That was 20 months ago – or 90.4 weeks ago – or 648 days ago. On Sunday afternoon in front of a Camelback Ranch crowd of 12,235, the Justin, TX native and Dodgers third round draft […]
Too Close For Comfort
It wasn’t a ball or strike close call, or a safe or out close call.

Is Ohtani Broken?
July 12th, 2024 at 8:00 am by Ron Cervenka Dodgers international superstar Shohei Ohtani is good for baseball.

In Saturday’s 5-3 win over the visiting Milwaukee Brewers in front of a sold out Dodger Stadium crowd of 50,086, the 30-year-old Oshu, Japan native did this: Ironically (and poetically), Ohtani pulled […]
