Jo Lasorda, the bubbly and easygoing counterpart to her voluble, larger-than-life husband Tommy Lasorda, has died at 91 at the Fullerton home where the couple had lived for decades.
Lasorda died Monday evening, according to the Dodgers. No cause was given. Her husband, the exuberant and often profane former Dodgers manager who won two World Series championships, died Jan. 7 at 93. The couple had been married 70 years.
“The Los Angeles Dodgers family were saddened to learn of the passing of Jo Lasorda, widow of Dodgers’ Hall of Famer Tommy Lasorda,” the team tweeted.
