An anonymous pitcher whose entire life changed with four innings is standing in a crowded Dodger Stadium bullpen in the middle of winter when he hears a voice from the stands.
“Will, thank you so much!” shouts a fan, and underneath his thick beard, the pitcher blushes.
“This is something I’ve never had before,” said Will Klein.
And this is ruining baseball?
On a crowded concourse in the middle of a Saturday morning two months before the start of the season, fans are chugging beers, scarfing Dodger dogs, and even doing a line dance.
