Check out Magic's Bobblehead


Is it me, or is Magic palming a BASEketball?

I can see it now. 

Magic stands near the free throw line ready to defend against Doug "Sir Swish" Remer.  He lays down his best "psyche out" which causes an errant shot to deflect off the rim.  He immediately jumps toward the loose ball and slams it home to end the inning. 

Here'a an early look at the Magic Johnson/ Dodgers bobblehead that they'll be giving out to fans on September 12th.  Pic via @Dodgers twitter.

A Couple of Pics from Adrian Gonzalez's Baseball ProCamp on Monday



As some of you may have known, this past Monday (the Dodgers off day) Adrian Gonzalez held a Baseball camp for kids.  It was held in Agoura Hills.  Well, a reader was in attendance with her young son and kindly passed along some photos to share.

As you can see, there were plenty of future Major League stars in attendance.  The event was held by ProCamps.  Go to their website here.

Our helpful reader was young Christian - who I've featured numerous times on this blog.  You can see him below in the front row on the far left.

You may remember him as the 3-year old hurler who wowed the fans when he threw out the first pitch last season.  My favorite post, though, has to be the time when Reddit got a hold of a pic from that first pitch and went photoshop crazy.  See my post about that here.  The below pic was one of my favorites.

Blog Kiosk: 8/1/2013 - Dodgers Links - Hanley's Wine, Alexander Guerrero and Matt Kemp


Above is a bottle of Hanley's "I See You" wine.  He gave a bottle to each of his teammates yesterday.  Pic via his twitter.
There are nights when Sue Falsone walks onto the field at Dodger Stadium and girls in the stands shout at her and wave. They later tell Falsone they want to grow up and be just like her, and that gives her a warm feeling that never gets old.
“I don’t think it’s going quite as fast as we had hoped or he had hoped,” Mattingly said. “It’s going fairly slow, but there is progress and we’ll just kind of keep rolling until we get him ready.”

  • Yasiel Puig and Kobe.
