It’s like the team is trying to convince me to stay a Season Ticket Holder. Last night’s walk-off grand slam victory that made history in more ways than one was the epitome of why I go to Dodger games in the first place. It was way up there with the bobblehead homer to Mannywood, the 18th-inning World Series walkoff and the night my beloved Eric Karros become the L.A. home run king.
EK told us all at that Member Luncheon that he didn’t expect to stay on the throne for long, and Shohei Ohtani is doing his best to make that come true. He stole his 40th base. (Record for a DH was 22.) And he hit his 40th HR. (Just the 6th player to hit 40-40, and the 1st Dodger.) But it wasn’t just any home run, it was a first-pitch walkoff grand slam. How could so much magic fit into one brief moment?
I might be rethinking my decision. Stay tuned.
