Dodgers/Bruins: Syncing Up The Teams In Blue

The Blue Crew is back in action. And it looks like the Los Angeles Dodgers are doing what they can to sync up with Bruin Blue. Dodgers are hosting a "UCLA Night" at the Chavez Ravine on April 16th:

UCLA Family Group Tickets

The Los Angeles Dodgers are pleased to offer discount tickets to the entire UCLA family for UCLA Night, Thursday, April 16. Enjoy exciting Dodgers' baseball with friends and family members throughout the 2009 Season, and don't forget to wear your Dodger Blue!

You can get the details over here.

Of course Bruins and Dodgers go hand in hand. Just few days ago Joe Torre mentioned how he takes his cues from Coach:

Joe Torre might have one of the best managerial records in big-league baseball, but when it comes to starting a new season, the Dodgers manager looks for guidance from legendary UCLA basketball coach John Wooden.

Torre naturally hopes the Dodgers get off to a fast start, beginning with the team's opener Monday in San Diego against the Padres.

But even if the club struggles out of the box, what's important is whether the Dodgers are playing well regardless, Torre said Friday.

"That's really what you look for," Torre said. "I learned about the win-and-lose stuff from John Wooden -- reading his books -- that you don't always control that part."

Well Torre's team got off to a great start to open the season yesterday (full coverage over at True Blue LA). If you are a huge Dodger fan you might want to check out the boys in blue on April 16th.

Nothing beats baseball and Dodger dog with Bruins fans around you at the Chavez Ravine.

As for the Halos/Padres/Giants/As fans in BN ... don't feel left out ... if you have a Bruin angle on your team, don't be shy to fanpost/fanshot it here on BN.

GO BRUIINS.

I was just about to post that

As a bonus, they’re playing against the San Francisco Giants that night, so Giants fans aren’t going to be left out.

Plus, I see some discounts up to 40% in sections which is a pretty damn good deal

The only two sports teams for which I have emotional rooting interests

are the Dodgers and Bruins. Pairing them up in any situation just makes me happy. Dodgers for the 2009 World Championship, Ben Ball Warriors for the 2010 National Title = my dream.

Come on now, where’s the love for the Giants? Thank you for the info, maybe I will make it over there from campus.

Love here!

I’ve actually worn Giants gear into Dodger Stadium and lived to tell the tale.

Likewise

The hat was for Bay Area representation (big time A’s fan here) at that game as much as anything.
