Dodgers' Celebrate on Social Media


You gotta love how the world today brings about an instant connection with your favorite team and players.  It's like we're enjoying the moment right with them.  So, take a second to check out some of my favorite tweets, instagrams and whatnot's from your Los Angeles Dodgers.

To start, check out the fantastic selfie above taken by Justin Turner and shared on instagram.  Clayton looks downright mortified.  It's like he can't believe what's going on.  AJ Ellis, on the other hand, does his best Miley Cyrus impression.

2015 Topps Supreme - All the Dodger Cards

Here is another high-end product currently available at a hobby store near you that promises two autographed cards per box.  Heck, those are the only two card you'll get in the box.  Prices range from $60 to $70 each, and you'll get a single pack with two autograph cards within it.  The set is called 2015 Topps Supreme and this is its third year as a brand for Topps.  It initially started out as an Asia only release, but proves so popular they had to bring it stateside.  Go here to see a complete checklist.  Below are pics of most of the Dodger cards available.  Of special note, there are several cool looking Mike Piazza cards as a Dodger available; including a booklet card that has die-cut windows that allow you to see the relic piece hidden in the middle.

Blog Kiosk: 9/30/2015 - Dodger Links - Clinched & #RESPECTTHERIVALRY


Celebration!  Photo above via AM 570 on twitterGo here to check out a bunch of great pics by Jon SooHoo of the Dodgers' celebrating last night.

I've got mad respect for this.  Via a tweet by Brodie Brazil, check out the San Francisco scoreboard after the Dodgers clinched.

Below are more links to check out:
"I like this team a lot better," (Adrian Gonzalez) said Tuesday. "It has veteran leadership, guys that have been there, guys who go hard every day. I think we've got the right nucleus of guys."
...
"A lot more professional this year," Mattingly said. "Our guys get ready to play. I never really worried about them being ready to play. I could trust them. They got down to business on the field, and that was a good feeling for me."
  • After the AC/DC concert at Dodger Stadium the other night, Dodger Stadium is on its way back towards being in playing shape, via Jon Weisman at Dodger Insider.  He shares some great photos of the concert and its aftermath.
  • Via Ken Gurnick at MLB.com, "Puig sees progress, but return still a question."
"Yasiel's news actually has been pretty good," the Dodgers manager said Tuesday. "He was able to do things yesterday and today that are pretty encouraging. He actually played in some kind of game. He's getting at-bats, continuing to do some things."
  • You can now get your NL West Division Championship gear now.  Per a Dodgers press release:
Fans can purchase official NL West championship and 2015 postseason merchandise (images attached) online at Dodgers.com and at the Top of the Park store at Dodger Stadium, starting tomorrow at 9:00 a.m. Store hours through Thursday are 9:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m and the stadium can be accessed through the Sunset Gate at the corner of Stadium Way and Elysian Park Avenue. The Dodgers return home on Friday to begin the final regular-season homestand with the San Diego Padres and store hours will be from 9:00 a.m. until the end of each game through the weekend.
