Sat nights game was definitely a once in a lifetime chance, and really was well worth the day we spent on campus. What was interesting was the Dodgers played with NO left fielder. They had 6 infielders. Boston however, played a normal positioned game.

Luckily we got to campus at 11 am so we got choice parking, i heard the line for the shuttles to Dodger stadium after the game were colossal.

Pregame, they had the living 1958 championship dodgers signing autographs. Of note, I got Carl Erskine, Duke Snider, Wally Moon, and Sweet Lou Johnson autographs (amongst the other players as well). Don Newcomb and Steve Garvey were there as well.

Al Michaels did the introduction which added Vin Scully to the Coliseum Hall of Fame.

One funny thing that happened: Kareem threw out the first pitch, and the ball fell about 10 feet short of the plate, and rolled to the catcher. Everyone boo'd. He then grabbed another ball, and "SKYHOOKED" it to the catcher. Really comical.

Usually i'm not a fan of the Wave at games either, but that was the craziest thing i've ever seen. The vertical height of the wave coming at you was really out of this world. The players in both dugouts started doing it too. Really cool.

That being said, i've taken today off, and i'm off to opening day. The hopes are high this season, and everyone is in first place. "its time for Dodger baseball"
