Dodgers Win theWorld Series! First since 1988!

October 28, 2020 in Sports, Rant

The last time the Dodgers won a world series Jennifer was 4 years old. The Lakers won the World championship in 1988, and the Dodgers did also. Last night the Dodgers won the world series by beating the Tampa Bay Rays 3-1, in the 6th game of the world series.

An in an odd side note, in the 7th inning of the world series game, 3rd baseman Justin Turner was pulled from the game after his coronovirus test came back positive.

He celebrated on the field and took the team photograph without a mask, sitting front and center right next to the world series trophy.

I just hope he didn’t cough on it before a team mate kissed it.

Dominating pitching by Clayton Kershaw, going 6 innings.

Another robbery of a home run by Cody Bellinger this time.

and Mooky Betts did something that hasn’t happened since Babe Ruth. A home run, 3 stolen bases in the same inning of a world series game.

ONE DOWN!

Dodgers are in the World Series Again!

Three times in 4 years, the Dodgers are in the World Series! They beat the Padres, and then the Braves, to get to the fall classic. Tampa Bay, who has never won a world series, is their opponent. Too bad it couldn’t be the Astros, so they could finally kick their cheating ass, but I’ll take it!

My nephew Matt Gray called up Saturday nite and asked if Janis and I wanted to go to a Dodger game suite with him and some of his buddies on Sunday afternoon. He is an exec at Paramount (well he will be one of these days so I will be the first to call him that).

The Dodgers got shellacked 12-5. Here are a few photos of the game.

Furcal steals another one!

Matt and I enjoy the game. I was dillusional as I had the rally cap on thinking that the Dodgers were going to come back from a 7-2 deficit

The highlight of the game was this girl who thought she would win a bet by her friends in the right field seats. If it meant going to jail and delaying the game for about 15 min, she was right! I’ve been to about 5 sporting events in my life with a streaker (naked) running thru the event, and this was the first time I was upset that the person was clothed!! LOL
