Steve Garvey breaks Expos fans’ hearts with a tie breaking HR in Game 4 of the ‘81 NLCS. Garvey was a postseason monster hitting .338/.361/.550 in 232 PAs (55 games) with 11 HRs, 8 doubles & 3 triples. He played his final game OTD in 1987.

In one of baseball’s greatest achievements, Steve Garvey hit .316 with 21 HR and 113 RBI in 1978 and played all 162 regular season games despite having the diet of a divorced forklift driver named Otis.

I’ve never felt Larry Doby gets enough credit for integrating the American League less than three months after Jackie Robinson debuted for the Dodgers. Today while we honor Jackie, let’s also take some time to remember Larry Doby and his huge contribution to the game.

[Bob Kendrick @nlbmprez]

Excited to return to Dodger Stadium today to reflect on the life and legacy of Jackie Robinson! Deeply honored to speak with players from the @Dodgers and @Mets in a special ceremony at 2:30 pm PT around the statue of Jackie!

On April 15, 1947, Jackie Robinson broke baseball’s color barrier. Today, we celebrate and honor the life and legacy of No. 42. Thank you, Jackie. Your courage will live on forever. #Jackie42

Whadaya got, Loran? How 'bout being at Augusta National for the Masters for 67 straight years? 🤯

Here's a very good Sunday read by @FletcherPage on the 87-year-old DGD.

@aikenstandard Lot of fun revisiting '86 Masters this week. #bestever

[Los Angeles Dodgers @Dodgers]

The Dodgers mourn the loss of Davey Lopes, who passed away today at age 80. Lopes was a member of the team’s record-setting infield of the 1970s and 1980s and one of the finest basestealers in MLB history. Our condolences go out to his family and friends.

Interesting tidbit Jack told me a couple of months ago.

One of the most underrated and best things you can do during The Masters: have the Champion’s Dinner at Hall’s Chophouse in Columbia, SC. Offered Tuesday and Wednesday nights, menu on the right.⛳️💯

Amazing night as always…..and I got to hold one of Ben Hogan’s drivers…..🔥
