Tommy Lasorda: Coolest cat in MLB
Earlier this season, Dodgers legend and baseball icon Tommy Lasorda took some grief for the way he reacted when an impromptu Psy performance broke out right in front of his face.
Well, LA is winning, the celebs are starting to treat Dodger Stadium like Staples Center in the middle of Lakers season, and on Monday night, Tommy upped his street cred — a lot.

Wow! What a difference 3-1/2 months can make. Just compare:

Now, you're probably thinking, "OK, so Tommy stumbled upon Cube. He probably doesn't even know who Ice Cube is."
Well, Tommy haters, guess again. Turns out, not only does he bleed Dodger Blue, but he oozes Hollywood Cool:

Good to run into my friend @jtimberlake. He's hosting @NBCSNL this week. Who do you think is a better singer? pic.twitter.com/I9g6qi3iKv

OK, we fudged on that one a bit. But Tommy's A-list status is legit. And it goes back a ways. You think Bruce Bochy has anything like this hanging in his office?
