Pope John Paul II celebrated Mass at Dodger Stadium on Sept. 16, 1987, halfway through Lasorda's 20-year stint as Dodgers manager. The following season, the Dodgers won the World Series.
LOL. Put your money on the Dodgers this year.

I’m pretty sure that was the strike-shortened season. It didn’t really count...unless God caused the strike.

Wow, he met John Paul I.
Neat trick.

I’m not surprised. As I’m sure He’s already explained to Pope Benedict, God is a Dodger fan.

I can’t stand Tommy Lasorda. Watch him try to hog the limelight tomorrow if he gets a chance.
Most likely, this story is a result of Lasorda’s publicist sending out a press release. Who cares?
The Pope himself, as a direct successor of the Apostle Peter, is the real story.
