Photo-A-Day 2013: Week 26

Ah, a week at home. And a Dodger homestand to boot. Not just any Dodger homestand, but the one that turned around what had been a dismal 2013 season. Let’s take a look at the week that was June 24-30.

27-JUN-2013: The week the Dodger season changed. And this, perhaps, the key moment: Yasiel Puig's 2-run single before a standing, sellout crowd lifts LA into a lead over the Phils they wouldn't relinquish.

Photo-A-Day 2013: Week 23

The week of June 3-9 saw a good mix of some relaxing evenings at home and some great events around the city, including a fantastic Tom Petty show, playoff hockey and my first glimpse of a Dodger rookie sensation out at the Stadium. Let’s take a look at the images!
