Matt Kemp 30/30 #beastmodeallday
"Matt Kemp crushed a long home run to center field in the bottom of the seventh inning of Friday's 6-1 win over the Rockies, making him just the second Dodger to reach 30 home runs and 30 stolen bases, and the fastest to do so.
Kemp joins Raul Mondesi, who accomplished the feat in 1997 and '99. He did so on a 3-1 pitch off lefty reliever Matt Reynolds.
As Dodger Stadium fans chanted "MVP," Kemp took three pitches and fouled one off before he crushed the fastball 427 feet to straightaway center field."

Keith Olbermann on Vin Scully
"Vin Scully joined the Dodgers early in the season of 1950. He has been connected with that team so long that two of the eight National League franchises the day he got there, have since moved, and a third has moved twice. Four of the other five have each twice replaced their ballparks. Between expansion and relocation, two-thirds of all the big league clubs are newer at this than Scully is. The late Bob Sheppard, considered an institution at Yankee Stadium since time immemorial, started the year after Scully did, and retired three years ago. He has broadcast Dodger games under twelve U.S. Presidents. Scully has been with the Dodgers for 100% of their seasons in Los Angeles and is generally credited with personally selling the sport and the franchise in its new home. If he isn’t the game’s all-time greatest announcer – if he isn’t sports’ all-time greatest announcer – he’s no worse than second or third." - Keith Olbermann
