Congratulations, J.T.

Congrats to Jerry Turner, the Dodgers' visiting clubhouse manager, who threw out the ceremonial first pitch before today's game in celebration of his 30 years with the club. J.T. started out as a bat boy in 1978 and is one of the truly good guys around here. ... That was actually one of two ceremonial first pitches today. The other one was thrown out by Friday Night Lights star Aimee Teegarden, much to the delight of Dodgers PR staffer Mark Rogoff. Much to the chagrin of Rogoff, she requested Blake DeWitt as her catcher.
