It is not an overstatement to say that, Tommy Lasorda was the most important figure in the Dodgers organization since Branch Rickey and Jackie Robinson. He gave his life to the franchise, speaking endlessly about "Bleeding Dodgers Blue" and talking to the "Big Dodger In The Sky". For almost 80 years, he was the face of Dodgers baseball and the embodiment of Dodgers Blue and their pristine whites. As a manager for the team. he won 1,599 games, the 22nd most victories by a Major League manager, 4 National League pennants, 2 World Championships, as well as a Gold Medal in the 2000 Summer Olympic Games held in Sydney, Australia. This week we delve into the baseball journey of the Hall Of Fame manager, and one of baseball's greatest ambassadors of the game in the history of the sport. #ThomasCharlesLasorda #SabatinoLasorda #CarmellaLasorda #JoanLasorda #BrooklynDodgers #LosAngelesDodgers #SteveGarvey #RonCey #BillRussell #DustyBaker #SandyKoufax #NewYorkYankees #KirkGibson
