Hall of Fame baseball manager Tommy Lasorda has died, the Los Angeles Dodgers announced Friday. He was 93.

Lasorda was in the hospital battling health issues in November. TMZ Sports reported at the time that Lasorda was on a ventilator and was sedated. However, things appeared to be looking up. The Dodgers said earlier this week that Lasorda returned home and was resting comfortably.


The Dodgers said Lasorda suffered a sudden cardiopulmonary arrest at his home around 10:09 p.m. local time Thursday night. He was pronounced dead about 40 minutes later.

Mr Dodger himself.
Great era.

Didn't he always coach 3rd base?
I loved seeing head coaches doing that.

Not as manager.
