I expect it is quite well known on LADT that I am a number one fan of minor league baseball. Do not get me wrong, I have had a romance with the Dodgers – which was really hot in the fifties and sixties – since 1952 and nothing including politics will ever change that for me. My love affair with baseball now is more at the minor league level as more Dodger offspring make their way to top rung of professional baseball. I just like the, “still a game”, aspect to it and love the dedication these young men have in pursuing a near impossible dream.
