since the playoffs started.

This is my 61st season as a Dodgers fan, and I have an emotional connection to Seattle. My hometown had a minor league club that was a Mariners affiliate. I went to almost every home game and knew some guys who made it to the bigs, llike Jeff Nelson and Omar Vizquel.

But then, the minor league club's shorstop one year was Gary Varsho. His kid, Daulton, is with Toronto.
