Dodger Blue Dream

Max Muncy passed Ron Cey on the all-time Los Angeles Dodgers homerun leaderboards this week, and he now has the second-most homers in L.A. history (behind Eric Karros) and fifth-most in Dodgers (Brooklyn and L.A.) history. With his All Star Game selection this year, Max is having a moment. Richard looks back on the past almost-decade with Funky Muncy, now the longest-tenured Dodger (!) and a glue guy in a clubhouse on a dynastic run of World Series wins -- and delivers a story of grit, determination, and doing things the right way. Also, Richard breaks down the bizarre game-ending double play in Philadelphia on Tuesday night, that has everybody talking.

On the eve of the United States' Semisesquicentennial, Richard brings you this special ep. He eulogizes three recently-closed Echo Park eateries with strong associations with Dodger Stadium: The Brite Spot, Taix, and Burrito King. He breaks down the All Star Game, and the Dodgers connections thereto. And he proffers an interpretation of Dave Roberts' successful managerial methods, with Doc logging his 1000th victory as manager of the Dodgers. (The quickest ever to get there.)

During the Dodgers 4-3 win over the Minnesota Twins on Wednesday, Dodgers backup catcher, rookie Dalton Rushing, had what must have been one of the worst games of his life, including going 0-4, with three strikeouts, and having some significant miscommunications with his battery-mate, starting pitcher (and global superstar) Shohei Ohtani, who is vying to win a Cy Young Award this year. The game has become the talk of the baseball world. Richard breaks it down for you.
