Walker Buehler’s latest quote will make LA fans miss Dodger Stadium during the playoffs.
The Los Angeles Dodgers are heading into the NLCS this week and while this isn’t exactly unfamiliar territory for the team, there are going to be some big difference which the fans are feeling the hardest.
The MLB has agreed to allow just 11,500 fans for the NLCS which will be held in Arlington, TX. This is, of course, better than allowing no fans but the turnout pales in comparison to what a 56,000 crowd would be like in Los Angeles and Walker Buehler knows that.
“We’ve gotten used to playing with none so any fans is a plus,” he said. “I’m sure they’re going to be loud but it won’t be like a sold-out Dodger Stadium.”
Dodgers Stadium is allowing fans into the ballpark parking lot
Many Dodgers fans don’t have the means to travel to Arlington for the series but Dodger Stadium won’t exactly be sitting empty either. The team announced a drive-in viewing where fans can come in their cars, park in the lot and watch the games from a safe social distance.
Yes, we know it’s not the same but it’s something right?
The NLDS Game 1 against the Atlanta Braves starts on Tuesday from Arlington, TX.
