Dodgers Catcher, Yasmani Grandal welcomed his junior! Yasmani Ryker Grandal was born on Monday, October 23 in Arizona. Although, he wasn't in the line up for yesterday's first World Series game, he still made it out to LA in time to be with his team. Funny thing is, right after the Dodgers won their last World Series title in 1988, their future catcher Yasmani Grandal was born, November 8, 1988.
“It’s kind of weird how one thing can relate to another,” Grandal said. “The fact that he’s born right before we start, I get to tell him that it’s something special we get to share between both of us. It was a joke between my wife and me, that I’d Skype her from the clubhouse if she was giving birth and we were in the World Series.”
