Tommy Lasorda inducted into Pacific Coast League Hall of Fame

Former Dodger manager Tommy Lasorda, already a member of the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame, will be inducted into the Pacific Coast League (PCL) Hall of Fame. The PCL is one of the AAA leagues (the high level of minor league baseball).

Back in the day, I tried to get Tommy to be the commencement speaker for Caltech's class of 1998, but that sadly didn't come to pass. (However, it was very convenient for getting second and other top choices when people requested 'anybody but Tommy Lasorda' for their speaker requests...)
