Closer to the Closer
He’s got the same sideburns.
The same lean as he gets the sign.
So what does Jonathan Broxton think of his bobblehead, which will be given out on June 8 to the first 50,000 fans in attendance when the Dodgers play the Cardinals?
“It’s pretty close. I think it’s going to be pretty cool to see,” said Broxton.
Broxton said he has only seen black and white photos of the bobblehead. He said this is a great way for fans to get closer to the Dodger closer.
This is the second of four scheduled Dodger bobbleheads given out at Dodger Stadium this year. On July 20, a James Loney bobblehead will be handed out when the Dodgers take on the Giants. A Matt Kemp bobblehead will be given out on Aug. 17 when the Dodgers host the Rockies.
“I think it’s pretty cool whoever they make it of. I think the players like it,” said Broxton.
Broxton said he’s sure people back home will be asking him for some. As for him, he’s not grabbing one for himself, but for his son, Jonathan Brooks, who will be celebrating his first birthday on June 11.
“I’ll probably put some in the room for my kid for when he grows up,” he said.
