Pop-quiz: where can you find a large mass of people wearing blue, white, gray, and possibly a little black? Answer: at Dodger Stadium, of course!
As the Dodgers continue to have their best season by far, more and more folks are finding themselves drawn to a seat at the stadium – if not already, glued to their radio, television, or computer screen – at least for us casual or hardcore baseball or sports fan, anyway.
It’s a complete 360 turn around from last season’s team when comparing it to this season’s – I mean we’re talking about a team where every player does his part in making sure everyone is moving together as a whole unit each and every step along the way.
One of the biggest moment that I’ve experience this season’s break through arrives from the April 28th game when they took on the Washington Nationals where they were trailing by 2 points at the top of the ninth inning. By the time they went over time, and pulled through with a homer from Matt Kemp – that was the moment when I stopped doubting and starting believing that this team has all the greatest ways to turn their potential wins into actual ones – and perhaps enough potential to get themselves into the World Series.
But for now, I’m happy to wear the blue and sliver lining hat, don on the Dodger uniform occasionally, and become part of the crowd cheering aloud at the stadium, in front of the screen, or at the radio as I witness this season’s team strive towards their victory in the making.
