    It's not because of the brilliance of having a future all-time great like Mookie Betts as a guest, but this was the standard of excellence. I've rarely witnessed 2 gentlemen that are extremely gifted in their craft exude the meekness and class in supporting a local business. It's a beautiful thing and I'm going to continue to support each in their future endeavors.

    Like Mookie once said, im not a baseball player, im an Athlete. Because the man can ball also. I definitely think he should have been 2023 MVP . I also feel maybe he would have been a great basketball player, but maybe never lasted in the NBA. But he's a amazing baseball player and will be in the hall of fame. It makes you wonder the choices and the decisions we make. We lose a life but gain another. Almost like he was meant to be baseball player. I dont know but life is crazy , how you think you will end up somewhere and end up somewhere you never dreamed or thought of.

I am a Dodger fan because of Jackie Robinson and I love that we got another outstanding African American baseball player wearing the Dodger blue!! Now that Mookie and Ohtani has lead us to another WS, I pray we can beat the Yankees for the ship!! LETS GOOO DODGERRRS💙 Oh, and thank you soooo for Ms. Alma and that amazing food!!
