[@franklyfranks1657]

“Everybody wave” hahaha that’s what I tell my students every time we see a plane or helicopter pass near our school.

[@Matthew-dw5cc]

I wish you were my teacher

[@annabellayeet8467]

Verdugo turned out to be a good pick hopefully he can help you win this year

[@mrtannerjr]

And now unfortunately he is gone

[@marioverdugo2148]

The number one goes to Boston Alex Verdugo

[@chrisc7208]

Joe kelly is funny

[@dom.rockchalkjayhawk.8990]

Chris C just wish he could pitch

[@Blazerghost]

Went to high school with this kid, nice to see others succeed from a poor sports program.

[@dannylopez5737]

We had such a awesome powerful well put together of a team. I really miss these Dodger years… Let’s Go DODGERS!!!

[@madalynnrae2747]

“Everybody wave”🤣🤣💙

[@phatdumpling6059]

[@HowardSantiago-qn4kv]

@6:22 I see the Queen, Sue Jo. BACK STAGE SUE!!!!

[@georgebulova]

Mucha Suerte Alex. Dedicación, empeño y esfuerzo son la clave!!! Go Alex!!!

[@robertpatrick9128]

Isn't that nice ? The Dodgers gave up this guy for essentially nothing.Mookie Betts will go somewhere for $400 million bucks at the end of this 'season' ,the Red Sox got a player with loads of upside and my beloved Dodgers got nothing.Is Al Campanis back at GM ? Is Ned Colletti back ? Is Frank McCourt owner again ? Does FOX run the club again ? This has got to be one of the worst trades in a long history of dumb trades for the Dodgers.It's almost up there with trading Pedro Martinez to the Expos and Mike Piazza to the Marlins.

[@mrtannerjr]

And now he is with Boston we will miss you Verdugo 😔

[@rodinunez5967]

I want that 27 jersey

[@mhj5108]

Tomy Lasorda picked Alex Verdugo. Verdugo is going to shine some Dodger Blue for real long time.

[@franklyfranks1657]

I call him “little cutie” hahaha little because he’s young

[@brianchua4240]

Gonna miss Verdugo. If it wasn't for injuries, he could have had a bigger impact. Best of luck in Boston!

[@Mr.77776]

He's great! Love that kid!

[@bmcminn8838]

I’m watching this after the passing of Tommy Lasorda. Seeing that clip of Tommy really brought back memories of watching him in the dugout with the players every once in a while and also in the draft.

[@adln7335]

I was at this game, surreal experience for sure.
