Last night was Dodger Pride Night at the Staples Center for the LA Kings game against the Florida Panthers. Dodger standout utility infielder Justin Turner was at the game to drop the opening puck and the Kings wore those fantastic 'Dodger themed' jersey's last night that were auctions off for charity. As you can see above, the Kings gave Turner his own jersey, pic via @Dodgers on twitter. Go here to check out more photos of the evening from the Dodgers. Later this afternoon I'll put up my own report from the game; including some photos I took and a peek at the jersey auction that garnered huge dollars. BTW, I was once again shut out and didn't win a jersey. Boo!
