Dodgers Unveil 6 New Bobbles for Fans

In addition to the already revealed bobblehead of Sandy Koufax to be given away on Tuesday, August 7th against the Rockies, the Dodgers reveal 6 more to wet your appetite. Here they are:
  • Maury Wills with Don Drysdale on April 28 (vs. WAS),
  • Orel Hershiser on May 15 (vs. ARI),
  • Dodger infield of Steve Garvey, Davey Lopes, Bill Russell and Ron Cey on May 29 (vs. MIL),
  • Mike Scioscia on June 12 (vs. LAA),
  • Hall of Fame Manager Tommy Lasorda with Hall of Fame Manager Walter Alston on July 14 (vs. SD); and
  • Fernando Valenzuela on August 21 (vs. SF).
This is pretty exciting as several of these bobbles will feature more than one subject. On top of that, Mike Scioscia gets a bobble as well to be given out during a freeway series game. Check out the Dodgers Press Release, here.

One thing to note, there is a special give-away for the game that will highlight Clayton Kershaw's Cy Young Award presentation. According to the Dodgers promotional schedule, a Kershaw Cy Young Replica will be given away. I imagine this will be a mini-plaque of the award similar to the Lasorda HOF mini-plaque award given away a couple of season ago.
