Former Los Angeles Dodgers coach Tommy Lasoda died of a heart attack at his mansion in California, USA on the night of the 7th local time.

93 years old.

[토미 라소다 / 전 LA 다저스 감독 : (명예의 전당 헌액은) 제 일생일대 최고의 사건이지만 이 기분이 길게 가지 못할 것 같습니다. 어머니가 흔들어 깨우면서 ‘토미, 학교 갈 시간이야’ 할 것처럼 꿈을 꾸는 것 같습니다.]

He led the Dodgers’ World Series championships twice in 1981 and 1988, and at the 2000 Sydney Olympics, where we won the bronze medal, he was also the coach of the US national team.

It was a life filled with love for baseball and the Dodgers so that he could say that his body had blue blood, the symbol of the Dodgers.

The reason he was close to us was also because he was a teacher of Park Chan-ho, a Korean special class, Korean Major League No. 1

He was close enough to call each other his adoptive father and adoptive son, sometimes as a leader, and sometimes as a friend, with Park Chan-ho’s growth.

People from all walks of life in the U.S. also prayed for deep condolences and condolences while reminiscing the love and passion of the major league heroes in baseball.

Coach Lasoda, who made various baseball quotes such as “The saddest day of the year is the end of the baseball season,” also left his tombstone that many baseball fans remember in advance.

[토미 라소다 / 전 LA 다저스 감독 : 내가 죽은 뒤 내 묘비에 이런 말이 남았으면 합니다. 다저스 구장은 그의 주소였다. 하지만 모든 야구장이 그의 집이었다. 그리고 그는 야구를 사랑했다고요.]
