The Torch Has Been Passed

Who doesn’t like to be around a guy who always smiles, never complains, and is just a fun and outgoing person? The Dodgers had that guy from 2015 until 2020, when they won the World Series. He was the “Banana Man” – namely Kike Hernandez! The Dodgers have a history of having some characters in the clubhouse: Jay Johnstone and Jerry Reuss were also right there with Kike. The fact is that the Dodgers missed Kike’s personality and craziness in the clubhouse as much as they missed his RH bat. Hernandez was a key role player and cheerleader for the 2020 Dodgers who won it all, as well as a potent RH power bat.
