Game-used JerseyHologram number HZ844993EVENTSEventSD at LADDateOct 04, 2015Additional InformationLos Angeles Dodgers, Home White, Majestic, #2, Lasorda, worn by Jimmy Rollins during last regular season game of 2015. Rollins was designated "Manager of the Day".
Don Mattingly allowed Jimmy Rollins to manage the Dodgers in their regular-season finale, as everything from the team’s place in the standings to the home-field advantage in the postseason was already set.
Started by Mattingly’s predecessor and mentor, Joe Torre, the annual tradition has produced a number of laughs over the years and did so again Sunday.
In the wake of the Dodgers’ 6-3 victory over the San Diego Padres, Mattingly playfully feigned outrage at how the typically intense Clayton Kershaw reacted when Rollins removed him from the game with two outs in the fourth inning.
"Ridiculous,” Mattingly said with a smile. “He even had a smile. I haven’t seen Kersh smile on the field in, like, five years. I mean, he smiled out there.”
Only two starts ago, Mattingly was subjected to a tirade by Kershaw upon delivering similar news.
Said Kershaw about Rollins: “I wouldn’t give Jimmy a hard time on his first day of managing.”
If Rollins is to be believed, this will also be his last. Rollins said he would never manage again.
“Me and [Floyd] Mayweather,” Rollins boasted of his undefeated record, comparing it to that of the recently retired boxing champion.
