You know you learn something new every day? I just learned that there is a Tommy Lasorda named asteroid. No, really it’s true. It’s called asteroid 6128 Lasorda. Apparently according to astronomers, it makes its closest approach to Earth today. It was named after our site namesake in 2002. Yes the Lasorda asteroid is coming.
