Turner surprises first grader with tickets

"I've got four tickets to the first home game of the NLDS, and we're going to reward him for everything he's accomplished at his school this year," Turner said. "I hope the kids are excited, especially Eddie and his family. I'm assuming they're all Dodger fans."

They were, Turner was assured. The school is only a few minutes from Dodger Stadium, after all.

"It's right around the corner. I might be able to throw a baseball from the stadium to the school," Turner said. "It works out perfectly. It's in the neighborhood, it's in our community, it's actually in our backyard.
