How the hell was he a Dodger fan growing up in Vallejo?
A good question that I can't answer. I heard it mentioned on a late night Brewer telecast on the MLB Extra Innings package (yes, I can be addicted easily to watching hours of baseball every night ).
I understand that Vallejo is in the Bay area and the only thing I know about the city is that it was planning to file for bankruptcy, and it is the birthplace of two colorful former major leaguers, Tug McGraw and Bill Buckner.
