(Read More)What. A. Game.
In the grand scheme of things, Friday’s game between the NL West first-place Los Angeles Dodgers and the NL West fifth-place Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field was basically a meaningless game.

Something Ain’t Right
Although there has been no official word from the team (yet), it appeared from his very first pitch on Thursday evening that something wasn’t quite right with 26-year-old Dodgers right-hander Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who the Dodgers signed to an enormous international free agent contract back on December 27, 2023 to the tune of 12 years at […]

March 24th, 2025 at 8:00 am by Ron Cervenka Although not exactly a household name among Dodger fans, 30-year-old Dodgers minor league catcher Chris Okey did exactly what you are supposed to do when you come up with two outs in the bottom of the seventh inning and runners on first and second and the game tied 1-1 – you smoke a double into […]

One Down – 161 to Go
March 18th, 2025 at 4:45 pm by Ron Cervenka Gotta admit it’s pretty cool that the Dodgers being the only team in MLB history to have played games in six different countries (United States, Canada, Australia, Mexico, South Korea and now Japan) is pretty cool. That said, I also gotta admit that getting up at 3 AM to watch their 4-1 win over the […]
