    Seeing Albert last year with the Dodgers was amazing. He looked genuinely happy to be playing baseball again for the first time in years. I hope he gets 700 tonight, even against my boys in Blue. He actually IS what we wish all professional athletes would be, but seldom ever are.
    BTW: When a literal legend like Albert Puljos says "seeing how they (Dodgers organization) go about it" actually inspired him to keep playing, you can safely assume you're doing something right Andrew Freedman. That's a compliment worth separating from the noise.

    Uncle Albert is absolutely one of the biggest role models for not only baseball, but how to appreciate life,God, each other, teammates. Man, to get a hug from him!!! I always pull for our Blue crew, but I kinda want to see him get cheered by the fans here for his milestone!!

    Never forget that image of him holding up an injured Justin Turner down the dugout steps.

      It’s a weird case with Albert and the Dodgers. He barely played for them, but it’s hard not to associate him with the team. Your example is one of many reasons why. However briefly he and the team interacted, special moments always seemed to occur, especially at Dodger Stadium.
      It’s either that, or I’m just jealous of the Cardinals and want to call him ours somehow!

      Don't get carried away! 2 dingers over the next 3 games most could live with, but you want 2 in a game with 1 being a walk off?! The walk-off would do absolutely nothing for his career or legacy.....tone it down a notch.

    The Dodgers changed basball history in such a great way. We want nothing more than a WS for the Dodgers, but regardless, the Dodgers of the past decade have defined what it means to have a sports team represent a city. I am so proud to be a life-long Dodgers fan.

    So nice of the Dodgers to feed him pitches and donate the game. No wonder they almost always choke in the playoffs, they don't know how to go for the kill. A real pitcher would have drilled him!
