HE'S CONSIDERED one of
major league baseball's great ambas-
sadors ... Tommy Lasorda is a master
at anecdotes and quotations ... like
when he managed the Los Angeles
Dodgers for 20 seasons (1977-1996)
... "I walk into the clubhouse and it's
like walking into the Mayo Clinic.
We have four doctors, three thera-
pists and five trainers. Back when I
broke in, we had one trainer who
carried a bottle of rubbing alcohol
and by the seventh inning he had
drunk it all."
The Baseball Hall of Famer will
be at the 10th Annual Hank
Greenberg Memorial Golf and
Tennis Invitational by Michigan
Jewish Sports Foundation ...
Monday, July 24, at Tam O'Shanter
Country Club ... Lasorda is only the
fourth manager in history to guide
the same team for at least 20 years ...
