Justin Turner hit a home run in the NLCS that left fans gasping for air. But what he did in game one of the 2017 World Series was magical. As a Dodger fan it was on the level of Kirk Gibson’s home run. Although it wasn’t in the 9th inning it still was a clutch, game winning home run.
I don’t know what’s going to happen from here on out. In 1988 it seemed as though after the big game one win, the Dodgers finished it. I hope the 2017 Dodgers do the same. Listening to Turner after the game, I’m also thankful for Turner. He led the World Series off with a home run. Similar to Steve Sax. I had an experience with Sax but Turner is next level person compared to Sax.
I didnt remember the Sax home run. I think I blocked it out, because my personal experience with him was negative.I won’t ever forget the Taylor home run but as a 12 year old maybe i was fixated on the Kirk Gibson home run. I’m sure I remembered it in some ways but when I see how many home runs are hit to lead off the World Series? I think it’s 23 times there was a leadoff home run. That’s incredible. Still, Taylor started it all off and gained momentum.
My entire night was brought to you by Justin Turner. I really and honestly can’t believe how clutch Justin Turner has been. Absolutely phenomenal. The Dodgers still need to win three more games. But, if they can continue the intensity? I’m in! It’s incredible what these guys are accomplishing.
