Aloha, everybody, Here are three PWEs I received from Johnny's Trading Spot. Sorry to say, I received these a few months ago, and I'm just now getting around to making a video about them. Sorry for the delay, John. The video may have been a long time coming, but It doesn't take anything away from the PWE contents. Let's check out the cardboard goodness within. Aloha!
Aloha, everybody, For the third year in a row, the Dodgers have a maddening double-personality. They have two extremes - Sometimes they're the steamroller and sometimes they're the steamrolled. Which are they really?
Aloha, everybody, I've been quiet for a couple weeks - unfortunately, some personal things got in the way of mindless videos and fun. I've finally got some time, so after one homestand and one travel series, let's break down the Dodgers and give my first report card of the Dodgers for 2019. Enjoy and Aloha!
Aloha, everybody, Here's the latest on Clayton Kershaw possibly headed to the disabled list, who the Dodgers are considering to take his place if that happens, and updates on the rest of the Dodgers' starting rotation. Bonus: Kenley Jansen news in my video report for LA Dodger Report. Aloha!
Aloha, everybody, Whew! The Dodgers pulled off a very successful three-game home stand in the NLCS, taking a 3-2 lead in the series. This is my take on what took place, and what I saw as the keys to their success. Thanks for watching (in advance). Aloha!
Aloha, everybody, It's happened once again - I've been Zippy Zapped - and let me tell ya, this one was a doozy. A few days back I received a surprise package from a "John Miller". I had no idea who it was, and set it aside to be opened in my next (this) YouTube video. Turns out JM was an alias for ZZ. My buddy Zippy Zappy stealthed me, and that was the smallest of the surprises in that little package that packed a huge punch. Watch and enjoy as I unveil several surprises: (SPOILERS FOLLOWING!) The entire LA Dodgers 2017 Bowman Draft Team Set A personally autographed LA Kings card Steve Duchesne. How awesome is that? As ZZ says, giving personal autos to fellow collectors is an underrated aspect of our hobby. What an incredible and unique surprise gift for a fellow collector! A special item indeed. A fantastic Hanshin Tigers flashback card of Jiro Ueda and his 568 strike outs submarine delivery. Finally, an auto of the next great Dodgers pitcher, Mr. Buehler. Also included is a beer review of Grandma's Pecan British Style Brown from The Dudes' Brewing Company out of Torrance, CA. Enjoy (and please like and subscribe) Aloha!
Aloha, everybody, I got invited to the ballgame last night to see the Dodger Stadium debut of Dodgers phenom Walker Buehler. The seats were just as awesome as the kid. The bonus was I got to see an incredible game by Kike Hernandez. He made two brilliant plays on the field, hit a home run and laid down a crucial eighth inning bunt single that directly led to the game winning run scoring. By the way, Buehler pitched five scoreless innings. What a game! Here are a few pics from my night at Chavez Ravine. Leading off is the kid, Buehler. His fastball is so fast, the ball's already in Grandal's mitt while the batter is still waiting for it to arrive.
Here's Yasiel Puig giving the ump his opinion of the generous strike zone (which wasn't so wide for Buehler).
The most excellent view from my seats! A special shoutout and THANKS to my friend Naomi for sharing her ticket with me. They were the best seats in the house.
Chris Taylor in action.
Hey! It's Tommy Lasorda!
Buehler staring in at the signs. I think this was his last (or second to the last pitch of the night). Note the "Big K" scoreboard showing his five strikeouts.
The kid bringing the heat.
Here's me in my homemade Buehler jersey. It says Bradley under there.
There's Nomah! See the schnozz?
Here's Joc Pederson with his strange "pitch this" batting ritual. I sure hope the Dodgers' marketing team uses this pose for his bobblehead.
Here's Kike Hernandez laying down his brilliant bunt single, which advanced Chris Taylor to third base.
That was followed by Cody Bellinger's sac fly to bring home the winning run.
The seats were fantastic, the Dodgers won, and I had an awesome time. THANKS, Naomi! Aloha!
