As the world practices social distancing amidst the Covid-19 scare, the staff and contributors at Dodgers Nation are looking forward to a time when we can all gather together again at Chavez Ravine to cheer on our Boys in Blue.
When that day finally comes, we’ll cheerfully celebrate every Belli home run and Kershaw strikeout with endless high fives. In doing so, we’ll pay homage to a piece of Dodgers history that dates all the way back to 1977.
On the final weekend of the 1977 regular season, fans watched anxiously with hopes that the Dodgers would become the first team in MLB history with a quartet of players reaching 30 home runs in a single year.
