Dodgers: Generosity multiplied
Gary Kessler, a close friend of Dodgers third-base coach Rich Donnelly from their hometown of Steubenville, Ohio, visited Donnelly at Dodgertown last week. Kessler is a big Boston Red Sox fan and, consequently, a big Nomar Garciaparra fan. After Donnelly introduced the two, Garciaparra gave Kessler an autographed bat. Kessler was so touched by the gesture that he donated $750 in Garciaparra's name to the Salvation Army and another $750, also in Garciaparra's name, to Dodgers first-base coach Mariano Duncan to provide baseball equipment to children in Duncan's native Dominican Republic.
