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.

As Advertised
June 8th, 2024 at 8:00 am by Ron Cervenka It was one for the ages. A game that will be talked about and referred to for decades, perhaps forever. It was classic Dodgers versus Yankees, just as it was supposed to be. Just as advertised and hyped. It took 11 innings to complete, ending with a dramatic one-out double to left field in the […]

June 7th, 2024 at 9:00 am by Ron Cervenka Suffice to say, when the Dodgers announced their 2024 regular season schedule back on February 20, all eyes immediately went to the three-game inter-league series with the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium on June 7-9, and understandably so.

June 2nd, 2024 at 8:00 am by Ron Cervenka When 34-year-old Dodgers right fielder Jason Heyward went on the injured list on April 3 for lower back tightness, the Ridgewood, New Jersey native, one-time All-Star, and five-time Gold Glove outfielder was slashing a very un-Heyward-like .214 / .200 / .214 / .414, with three singles, zero extra base hits, and only two RBIs.
