Dodgers Notes: Bobby Miller Shouting Match Breakdown, Mariachi Joe Kelly's Son Gets His Moment to Shine

In this story:
The Dodgers lost to the hated ones on Friday night as the bats couldn't figure out Giants starter Sean Manaea for 7 innings. In the 8th inning, they brought the go ahead run to the plate with two outs but Will Smith's struggles continued as he weakly grounded out to first base. More to come on his struggles later today on InsideTheDodgers.com
Beyond the loss, the big story of the day was the bobblehead night for folk hero Joe Kelly and his alter ego "Mariachi Joe." Fans flocked to Dodger Stadium, paying sky high prices for the chance to pick up the piece of memorabilia and get a look at the new mural depicting Kelly in his his famous White House pose.
To celebrate the evening, Joe's son Knox Kelly got to throw out the first pitch before the game, zipping a fastball wide of the catcher at home plate.
