LA Times: Buzzie Bavasi, former Dodgers GM, dies at 92
BBTF's Baseball Primer Newsblog —
LA Times: Buzzie Bavasi, former Dodgers GM, dies at 92 He may have bled Dodger blue, but he was still a front-office Giant: “I’ve had to take the abuse for that over the years, but that’s fine,” Bavasi told The Times in 2005. “Stay around long enough and there’s going to be abuse.” Although his reputation as a dynamic baseball executive became somewhat tarnished during his time with the Padres and Angels, Bavasi will be remembered best for building championship Dodgers teams while staying within the budget of parsimonious owner Walter O’Malley.

It's been an odd first two innings, to say the least. After the A's walk-walk-walk-walked their way to a 4-0 lead against a jittery rookie pitcher, it all felt apart in the bottom half, when Jack "Iron Man and Iron Glove" Cust butchered a routine fly.
