The Los Angeles Dodgers will host a "Home For The Holidays" pet adoption event at Dodger Stadium Dec. 14, opening the opportunity for Dodger fans touring home a dog from a local animal shelter. The event is set to take place from 9:00 a.m. PT to 1:00 p.m. PT. The event is open to the public and will not require a ticket nor an RSVP.

On Dec. 3, 2007, longtime Brooklyn/Los Angeles Dodgers owner Walter O'Malley earned the minimum amount of votes necessary for induction and was posthumously elected into the National Baseball Hall of Fame by the veterans committee. The famed owner, who entered the Hall of Fame officially during an induction ceremony in 2008, oversaw the Dodgers organization from 1950 until his death in 1979 at the age of 75.

The Dodgers put tickets for potential World Series games on sale Tuesday, with the cheapest seat available for $881.95, according to an afternoon review of the team website. That seat - $800 for the ticket and $81.95 for fees - is located at the end of the reserve level, high above the field and next to the foul pole. World Series prices posted on the website Tuesday ranged as high as $1,510.05.

"I mean, when I hit it, I know it's a home run. I didn't even see where it landed. I was looking in the dugout trying to get the guys going, get back in the dugout, everyone is high-fiving. I knew I hit it good. I didn't know where it went. Eventually somebody tells me, you watch it on video where it goes. I was just more focused on our guys there. I don't care."

The evening provided more than 400 attendees with an opportunity to celebrate the 2024 World Series title and enjoy a behind-the-scenes experience at Chavez Ravine. Fans were treated to a buffet dinner with tables set up on the infield dirt, and had the chance to hit in the batting cage, pitch in the bullpen and have a photo turned into an custom baseball card, among other interactive experiences.

Star LAFC recruit Son Heung-Min is settling into life in Los Angeles brilliantly. After netting his debut goal for the club last Saturday -- a stunning 30-yard free kick against FC Dallas no less -- the South Korea captain capped a fine week by throwing the ceremonial first pitch at Dodger Stadium on Wednesday.

City crews have installed about 400 signs in downtown San Diego to inform drivers about new street parking-meter rates, which will increase significantly during events at Petco Park.

"I'm so blessed, me and my brother," Brady said this week, after accompanying his dad on the Dodgers' recent road trip in Milwaukee. "It's my favorite thing to do. Come to the stadium with my dad. Get better. And watch guys go about it."

Kershaw's historic game wasn't necessarily a vintage outing, but to his dearest fans, that only deepened the meaning. The Chicago White Sox didn't make it easy for Kershaw. He labored. He gave up runs. It seemed he might fall one short of the three strikeouts he needed. And still, he managed to finally become the 20th pitcher in MLB history to reach 3,000 strikeouts.

To see King's smile and excitement last week after hitting his sixth home run in a 4-1 playoff win over Chatsworth offered a hint of his value and importance to a surging Gondoliers team.

"Stanton’s blast traveled an estimated 475 feet and was so impressive that left fielder Scott Van Slyke didn’t turn around to look at it."

The Los Angeles Dodgers witnessed their first rainout at Dodger Stadium on April 21, 1967, ending an incredible 410-game streak without rain disruptions.

One of the goats... hate seeing the bigfella who played into his 40s being fragile.
