Decisive 8th Inning Dooms Dodgers
Mentor, Steve Zelman, and his little brother Tre from Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Los Angeles visited Dodger Stadium on Sunday as guests of umpire Marvin Hudson. It was a sizzling 89 degree day and the Dodgers were looking to take the four game series after winning 2 of the previous 3 games against the Phillies.
Tight game! After tying the baseball game at 3 in the bottom of the 7th inning on a Kenny Lofton single, the Dodgers gave up 3 more runs to the Phillies and just didn't have enough for a comeback. The Phillies won the game 6-4 to earn a split of the four game series.
Hey Steve...we'll add a digital photo that Marvin has of you and Tre in a couple of days. A BLUE for Kids thank you for all that you do as a mentor!
We would also like to thank Vickie Lau, VP of Programs for BBBS of Greater Los Angeles for setting Steve and Tre up for a fun day at the park. If you live in the Los Angeles area and think you would be interested in mentoring a young boy or girl, visit their website at www.bigbrothersbigsisterslaie.org. Live in another area ?

A Big thanks to the BLUE for Kids program, and especially to Umpires, Marvin and Mark, for making yourselves available to our matches. For many of our kids, this is the first opportunity they have had to attend a professional baseball game. It's truly an incredible experience for them. Also, many thanks to Samuel Dearth for providing us with this opportunity! Vickie Lau, VP of Programs, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Los Angeles & Inland Empire
Hi Marvin,
Thank you for a great day! Trevalor had a blast at his first major league basball game and he really enjoyed the souvenirs. We appreciate the fun you create with your generosity and we hope you continue to share it with others. We'll look for you in the playoffs!
Steve Zelman
