Thanks very much
@Dodgers
fans for listening to us on
@AM570LASports
during this memorable regular season.
While I won’t be on the call for any postseason games, I am sure we will watch together and hope for a parade.
Again, thanks for listening to baseball on the radio.
Here is the
@Dodgers
half of my scorebook today. You may not be able to read my handwriting, but I have never in my life seen a performance like Ohtani put on today.
51/51 and counting.
Thanks for listening today on
@AM570LASports
The only
#Dodgers
player to win the Batting Crown and the Stolen Base Crown in the same season was Jackie Robinson in 1949. He won the MVP award. Trea Turner will win both this year and leads
#MLB
in hits, too. Plus he changed positions during the season. MVP?
@Dodgers
Thank you to the
@RedSox
front office and loyal radio listeners for the great support I have received, especially this year. Although they wanted me to return, I have decided to let my current contract with
@WEEI
expire in order to pursue other professional opportunities.
#Dodgers
outscored the DBacks 21-3 over the two games. Out hit them 25-10. Swinging the bats well heading to Opening Day (Night) on Thursday. Pen threw up zeros. Treinen’s 2 seamer was nasty and Graterol threw gas.
This is the foul ball Max Muncy hit into our booth tonight. Signed by the

Respond here. I will pick someone randomly at 11 pm and mail it to you when we get back.
This is the newest Ohtani mural and is at Grand Central Market in DTLA. It was done by Jonas Never
@never1959
who has painted a number of
#Dodgers
murals among many others. Took this pic last week when I was there.
What a season with the
#Dodgers
. 106 wins. I won't be with you for the postseason, but, will be back in February at Camelback Ranch. Thanks for listening and watching all season on
@AM570LASports
and
@SportsNetLA
11 more wins!

The last two nights
@RedSox
third base coach Carlos Febles has fallen in the dugout trying to sit on a bench that wasn’t there. No DL stint needed.

Just wanted family and friends to know that today our family lost our wonderful mother who peacefully passed away this morning after a long illness. Thanks very much to the
#Dodgers
who allowed me to spend time with her and my family during her final days.
This was my mom’s fav pic of her fav player. Mookie took this w/ me after hitting a walk off HR the night my dad passed 7/27/18. He asked me if he could do anything the next day. I wanted a pic for my mom with that bat. She would have been thrilled he is now w/ the
#Dodgers
too.
Joe and I are sending out our thoughts and best wishes to our friend and
@RedSox
broadcasting colleague
@Jerry_Remy

My broadcast partner, Joe Castiglione, wants everyone to know we had a new seat brought in for him for tonight’s broadcast in Houston. We hope you’ll tune in to

@RedSox
Very grateful to the
@RedSox
who presented me with my World Series ring tonight. Thanks especially to Sox Chairman Tom Werner for personally delivering it to Dodger Stadium. Great gesture by the organization that is very much appreciated.
A week from today I head to Arizona to join the
@Dodgers
radio/TV broadcast crew and I couldn't be more thrilled. Very grateful to the ballclub for this opportunity. First game for me is the 28th vs
@Rockies
on radio, TV the next evening vs
@Padres
#SpringTraining
On this date in 1976, Rick Monday saved the American Flag from being set on fire at Dodger Stadium. I have a feeling this story will come up on our broadcast tonight. Join Rick and me on
@AM570LASports
when the
@Dodgers
play the
@Dbacks
at 6:40 pm.

My man Steve Blass is hanging ‘em up today. 60 years as a player and broadcaster with the
@Pirates
. My partner on radio and TV for seven years. I never laughed so hard and cherish the time I worked with him. He will remain a great ambassador for the Buccos.

Thanks, Flagship Station for posting this.
I am really looking forward to hearing and feeling the reaction at Dodger Stadium tonight when Ohtani comes to the plate for the first time in the bottom of the first inning.
This is in the visiting TV booth in San Francisco marking his final broadcast. I had the honor of sitting next to it again two nights ago. He was the most impactful broadcaster ever.

In Little Tokyo tonight watching the
@Dodgers
win with internationally known artist
@TheRobertVargas
(who did the amazing Ohtani mural in Little Tokyo) and the highly accomplished TV & Film actor, Edward James Olmos. Both huge
#Dodgers
fans.
#Postseason
Nice job for
#Dodgers
RHP prospect Mitch White tonight. Really good slider. Threw 23 of them for a 31% whiff rate. 54 pitches/ 40 strikes. Impressive 5 innings, only one bad pitch vs. the regular AZ lineup.
Congratulations to
@james_outman
in his
#MLB
debut. An historic day. 3 Hits, 1HR, 3RBI’s. A day a player only could possibly dream about happened to him today in Denver. I love seeing player debuts, but this one was off the charts good.

Perfect morning for a walk on the North Shore. Pittsburgh should be a bucket list item for any baseball fan. Mixed in a short visit with Mr. Rooney while here.
I will see Mr. Rogers, Mr. Mazeroski, Mr. Clemente, Mr. Wagner and Mr. Stargell later today.
The
@Dodgers
enter tonight's game with an 8.5 game lead over SD in the NL West. Only twice before have they entered the month of June with an 8 game lead or better in the division. 1977 (+9.5) and 2009 (+8.5) See you on
@SportsNetLA
tonight with
@OrelHershiser

@alannarizzo
Nice win for the
@pirates
just now. Quite an early season story developing on the North Shore of Pittsburgh. Looking forward to getting into town tomorrow night for our series this week.
Rich Hill with the win, by the way.
This is the second ever Bee delay at Chase Field. First time was 4/3/2014 after the third pitch of the game vs the Giants. Was a 40 min delay. Lift is in place and just waiting for the specialist. Fans are being cleared behind the plate.

during the game tonight. He crushed during BP today and is extremely well spoken. Impressive kid!
#RedSox
I got to visit my parent’s seats tonight at Holman Stadium at the
@SilverKnightsNH
game. It was my last opportunity to do so before heading to L.A. for the season.
@FuturesLeague
Big night for The Bulldog,
@OrelHershiser
, as he is inducted into the Legends of Dodger Baseball. One of the best pitchers of his generation, a World Champion and MVP and great broadcaster & person. He helped me a great deal when I came to LA 5 seasons ago

Don’t forget that Joe Kelly pitched for Boston in 2017. The Astros beat the Red Sox in the ALDS after two lopsided games in Houston. He hasn’t forgotten, apparently. This outing shows one reason why Kelly was loved in Boston
