Dodger fan here.

Same here, been a fan since 58. Dad took me to a doubleheader with the Braves played in the Colisuem, been following them ever since.

This is an exciting year for them.

Last week with 3 consecutive walk off homers by rookies was amazing. Up to 5 in a row for walk off wins now at home games.

I became a Dodgers fan in '56, at age 7 while growing up in Long Beach, while reading in our new encyclopedia about their first World Series triumph against the Yankees in '55. Lo and behold, two years later they moved out here! Gil Hodges moved into a house two blocks from us, and I could begin rooting for my favorite, Duke Snider, in person at the Coliseum.
