Yep, it’s official. I love the idea of #playersweekend, both in theory and in practice. Although I’m wrapping up the A’s game tonight, I attended the Dodgers game live, where I was treated to Travis Shaw at third base, sporting “Mayor-DDC” on his jersey back, short for “Mayor of Ding-Dong City”, drawing huge laughs from the sold-out crowd. Spectacular. And then this happened:
Yes, that’s Vogt. With “I Believe” as his nickname.
(Full sob)

The Dodgers are really, really, really good. And really, really, really fun to watch.
