Tommy Lasorda is regarded by many as baseball’s most popular ambassador. 2018 marked the start of his 69th season with the Dodgers. During Lasorda’s 20 years as the manager for the Dodgers, he compiled a winning record, won two World Championships, four National League pennants and eight division titles. This record earned him a spot in the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
Throughout his career, Lasorda has made it a focus to share his experiences with younger generations in and around LA. “The most important message I want to try to get across is No. 1, for them to believe in themselves; No. 2, self confidence; and No. 3, to realize that they live in the greatest country in the world, the land of opportunity,” says Lasorda. It’s for his care for the community and his historic career that Lasorda will be presented with Sharefest’s Community Hero Award at Sharefest’s 15th Annual Gala: Changing the Odds on December 1, 2018. |
