When asked what Fernando Valenzuela might demand after his historic first season -- Lasorda replied, "He wants Texas back"
Will they pull through in extra innings on his birthday??? That Mary Hart is a trooper; she is still there in extra innings.
Tommy Lasorda has only one year less of continuous employment by the Dodger organization than VIn Scully. The two are also only a year apart, agewise.
Slick, I learned a lot from the ESPN 30 for 30 special on Fernando. I had no knowledge of the history of Chavez Ravine and the fact that many Mexican-Americans hated the Dodgers because of it. It wasn't until Fernandomania that relations improved.
