Players' field of dreams is Wrigley



The first minor league game played in Wrigley field and my nephew Jason pitched!


Jason Glushon was the star pitcher of the night for the Cougars, tossing three innings in relief of starter Jamie Richmond.

He allowed two hits and struck out four, but will be the pitcher of record when the game resumes after the Chiefs tied the game in the bottom of the eighth on a sacrifice fly by Luis Flores.

Nonetheless, he gave the bullpen a much-needed rest -- for now at least -- with Richmond lasting just 4 1/3 innings before being lifted.

"He went out and threw his pitches and showed a lot of confidence," Nieckula said. "He is a big part of our success in this game."

To celebrate their 50th anniversary in LA, the Dodgers dusted off some of the old-timer stars with names like Koufax, Snider & Wills





Opening Day at Dodger Stadium is our family tradition. We go every year and can't help but reminisce about my parents and the memories of many, many Dodger games over the years. My brother and I always go and this year my oldest nephew Gary and my sister in law Suzi came with us. Being that it was the 50th Anniversary since the Dodgers came to LA it was especially memorable. My mother passed away almost 5 years ago and there were few things she loved more than the Dodgers. She was a fan even as a kid in the Bronx favoring the Brooklyn Dodgers over the Yankees and was thrilled when they moved to LA a few years after she did. Both my parents would have been thrilled to see all of the Dodger stars of the past that came out on the field one by one, from Duke Snider to Ron Cey it was really moving. Unfortunately my camera couldn't get any close ups but the pictures do at least convey the spectacle of the day.

Kent's homer backs powerful Penny - DeWitt singles in first Major League at-bat
Well, Jeff Kent is the first 40-year-old position player they've ever had in an Opening Day lineup, but he's definitely not yet in the past. He slugged a two-run homer off Barry Zito in support of Brad Penny, who threw 6 2/3 scoreless innings, as the Dodgers presented new manager Joe Torre with a 5-0 win over the Giants
