It's got a great beat and the '86 Dodgers can't dance to it
Joe Torre has retained Rick Honeycutt as his pitching coach and Mariano Duncan as his first base coach within the new Dodger management regime. He also promoted Ken Howell from Triple-A Las Vegas to become the team's bullpen coach.
Had Torre had a chance to see this 1986 video called the "Baseball Boogie," where members of the Dodgers -- including Honeycutt, Duncan and Howell -- perform a stiff disco strutt, perhaps he'd reconsider.
The 4:55 minute video clip found on a website called Guba.com is here.
See how many of these Dodgers you can identify: Pedro Guerrero, Bob Welch, Orel Hershiser (who seems to be way too much into it), Bill Madlock, Jerry Reuss, Bill Russell, R.J. Reynolds, Tom Niedenfuer, Len Matuszak ... and way in the background, in the green jacket, current Angels manager Mike Scioscia.
Here's a 1986 Dodger roster. See who else you can pick out. Somehow, Greg Brock, Steve Sax, Mike Marshall and Fernando Valenzuela were conviently busy and didn't make the shoot.
The video has resurfaced and made the rounds, including on this site called the Blog Show with Dan Steinberg of The Washington Post and Jamie Mottram of Yahoo! Sports.
