    Matt Kemp gives his jersey, hat, shoes, etc. to a kid

    Not sure what the back story is on this, but a cool gesture.

    Especially given the fact that Kemp looks like he's trying to hit a pinata blindfolded at the plate right now. It's not exactly like things are going well for him or the Dodgers on the field. Classy to do this no matter what's going on in the game itself for him.

    Kid obviously is battling some sort of physical disability.

    Matt Kemp is the man.

    I'd be willing to bet he's playing hurt. You can just tell with the way he swings.

    At times, yeah, I do. He's not my favorite, but he's much better than a lot of the idiot blowhards out there and he at least offers a different perspective from time to time.

    I went to HS with Kemp and played ball with him. They brought him up his Freshman year to play varsity. Guy was an amazing talent back then and very respectful.

    Now, that was almost 10 years ago. My wife and I saw him in a mall in LA last year. We kinda looked weird at each other knowing that we knew each other but not sure where from. We ended up talking for about 30 minutes and then he got us tickets to the game the next night. My wife got a Kemp jersey and wore it. He may have fukked her as well, not sure.

    He seems to be a top notch guy.

    Yep. Played many good games against you guys from Jenks and BA.

    Played with Kemp and against Matt Holiday. In fact, when Holiday broke his arm his senior year, i was the guy at third that was blocking the bag as he was sliding in

    Pretty sure Owasso dominated most of those years. Forget the name of their pitcher that was throwing 93-94 his senior year

    New Level of Respect for Matt Kemp

    just thought this was a pretty cool moment and thought I'd share...

    After the Dodgers/Giants game the other night Matt Kemp went over and met a disabled Dodgers fan and his family, and this is what happened -



    Great to see moments like this in sports, for some it is more than just a game.
