Nope.
Back in the 80’s, I went to a Spring Trng day game at Vero Beach. LaSorda was managing, the Ultra Slim Fast man. I saw him on the field and said to myself -
damn, that stuff must work.
Then I got back in my car and was hauling butt for West Florida when I passed by Haines City and they were advertising a night game btwn the Royals and the Dodgers.
What the hell, I stopped figuring I would watch a couple innings. One of the first things I noticed was a “before” Tommy LaSorda. He had been wearing a girdle at Vero!
Amen to all of that.
Prayers up.
Sad. Prayers for Mr. Lasorda. He was sorely missed on 9/23/16 when Kevin Costner gave the best speech ever at Dodger Stadium. Losorda should have sat with Vin Scully that day. Sadly, he was in the stands, unable to follow the program.

Prayers for Tommy, from a Giants fan.
