Dodgers Dugout: Chase Utley and Kirk Gibson, separated at birth?

Hi, and welcome to another edition of Dodgers Dugout. My name is Houston Mitchell. Remind me never to irritate Chase Utley.

The game is in the Chase

Before the season started, I said the Dodgers made a bad move in bringing Chase Utley back. I was 100% incorrect.

Throughout this season, I have had this sense that Utley brings something to the team that I haven’t seen since the days of Kirk Gibson: a hard-nosed, take-no-prisoners attitude that sets a great example for the rest of the team. Saturday’s win against the Mets just proved that.
