Blog Kiosk: 12/20/2017 - Dodgers Links - Some Odds and Ends


The Yasiel Puig #SantaPuig truck made a surprise visit to the Evergreen Recreation Center in East LA yesterday afternoon to hand out toys and gifts to local families. As yo can see, smiles were seen all-around.

The Los Angeles Dodgers will pay baseball's highest luxury tax for the fourth straight year and the New York Yankees owe a penalty for a 15th consecutive season, streaks that could end as the sport's biggest spenders slash payroll for 2018.
The Dodgers owe $36.2 million, according to final figures compiled by the commissioner's office and obtained by The Associated Press. That raises their five-year tax total to nearly $150 million.

Korean government on Tuesday awarded nine individuals for their contribution on promoting Korean culture to other countries.
...
Among other awardees were Martin Kim, the former translator for the Los Angeles Dodgers. He was widely known among Koreans as the Dodgers’ pitcher Ryu Hyun-jin since 2013. Kim has also been a patron of Korean popular culture in the US.
When I was 6-years old, my grandfather took me to my first Dodger game. Watched Shawn Green play, and watched Eric Gagne and all those guys play. Absolutely fell in love with the game of baseball. My dad signed me up for little league when I was 7-years old for the following season. I kinda just fell in love with the game right then and there and knew this is what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. God blessed me with that ability so I’m just trying to kind of run away with it.
