    AAA ball is just a very small notch down from MLB, much cheaper and more entertaining. The parks are great.

      Current nosebleed seats at Dodger Stadium are around $50.

        I’ve commented to you before about the Pirates, Reds, Royals, etc… ought to pull out of MLB. They simply will not succeed consistently against the big market teams with no salary cap. They may have a breakout year with young players, but they will eventually lose them to the Dodgers/Yankees…

          Yep. You can build all you want, but if you can't keep them...

            Dodger Stadium has rarely looked more empty.

            Dodger Stadium has rarely felt more full.

            An hour before the Dodgers hosted the San Francisco Giants on Friday night, in the strangest of sights, there were no players in the dugout, no players on the field, and barely a couple of hundred fans in the stands.

            Sister Unity and Sister Dominia didn’t mind.

            They stood in front of the third-base line and embraced their Community Hero Award medals as if they were accepting an Oscar.

            They waved to a handful of people waving back. They basked in the scattered cheers. They swept dramatically off the field smiling with painted faces and swooshing their blue and black habits.

            Outside the gates, several thousand were protesting their existence. Throughout the Catholic community, thousands more showered them with scolding prayers and calls for boycotts.

            They didn’t listen. They didn’t run. They didn’t cave. The Dodgers, who caved once, didn’t cave again.

            In a four-minute ceremony that was the culmination of three weeks of controversy, the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence activist organization was finally honored as the highlight of the Dodgers’ 10th annual LGBTQ+ Pride Night.

            You could have heard a pin drop. You could have seen hearts soar.

            "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

            The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                The dodgers recognize the importance of having boys who dress like girls and hate Christians.

                        Oh, sorry...I got the author's last name confused on the L.A. Times piece.

                          That article has the same hero worship cadence as the old time sports reporters writing about Mantle or DiMaggio. Now they're breathlessly describing the awe inspiring courage of trans people.

                          Education is extremely important.
