I guess I should start off by saying I am a die hard Angels fan and love them to pieces. With that
said... my family got four free tickets to a Dodgers game this evening and who could give these up? If you love the game then it doesn't matter who is playing. I hadn't been to Dodger Stadium since I was about twelve years old so this was an exciting adventure. My mom, dad, brother, and I all went to the game tonight and had a blast. There was no expectations and it didn't really matter who won, all that mattered was that we had fun. Truthfully, I was looking forward to the honorable Dodger dogs and I was not disappointed.

There is something about the Los Angeles Dodgers that has a different feel to it than the Angels do back home. There is history to the Dodgers franchise and dedicated
fans. I know Angel fans come with their strong spirits as well but not like the Dodger fans do. I also realized how much more simple a Dodger game is. There aren't any funny videos to keep you entertained throughout the game or little Angels girls throwing around peanuts, the game is simple and it's baseball. The big screen is still in black and yellow. Not HD TV or anything but it doesn't matter because no one pays attention to the technology being provided. Everyone is focused on watching the game.

Bottom of the first, Manny hits a two run home run into center field (428 ft to be exact) and the Dodger fans go wild. "Manny, Manny, Manny," are chanted everywhere. I was amazed
by how accepted Ramirez was into Los Angeles. It was as if he was there his whole career. I am real glad that the Dodgers got him in a trade because he is exactly what they need for the end of this season and seasons to come. A true boost for the Dodger's franchise.

The Dodger dog was excellent, the game was thrilling, and the fans were wild. What more can you ask for in a baseball game? Dodgers won 4-2 against the Diamondbacks and that was that. For the record... I am 0-4 on Angels games this year that I have attended and 1-0 for the Dodgers. What does that say about me?
