'Pups in the Park' redefines 'Dodger Dog' image

Sunday at Dodger Stadium was the 'Pups in the Park' promotion where fans are allowed to bring their dogs into the stadium to enjoy a game. Fans and their pooches were treated to a 4-0 Dodgers victory over the Colorado Rockies where Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman both homered and starter Gavin Stone went 5.0 innings of shutout, four-hit ball.

The official attendance for Sunday's game was 48,251. It's unclear whether that includes the seemingly thousands of pups also in attendance. 

Dodger Dogs, indeed.

While Kyle has spent most of his writing career covering the NFL’s Tennessee Titans and San Francisco 49ers, he’s never lost the love of baseball that has resided in the deepest recesses of his soul since he began playing T-ball at 4 years old (no matter how hard John Fisher has tried). Aside from writing, Kyle also hosts a radio show, the Insiders, with James Ham on ESPN 1320 in Sacramento. When he’s not being a sports dork, Kyle loves being a normal dork and traveling, visiting museums, diving further into K-Pop fandom (#SKZ) and hanging out with his wife and cats.
