Known as "The Bulldog" for his tenacious style, Orel Hershiser was a recognized clubhouse leader who pitched for the Los Angeles Dodgers, the Cleveland Indians, the San Francisco Giants and the New York Mets between 1983 and 2000. He pitched more than 3,000 career innings, won over 200 games, recorded more than 2,000 strikeouts and finished with a lifetime ERA of 3.48.

Though he led the National League in winning percentage in 1985, Hershiser's greatest season came in 1988. That season, he led the league in wins (23), innings (267), and complete games (15). Hershiser also broke a 20-year-old record by pitching 59 consecutive scoreless innings, and capped off his incredible on-field performance by taking home Cy Young, World Series MVP and Sports Illustrated "Sportsman of the Year" honors.

3. How to Get Your Lady Into the Game
1. Get her Involved: If you are into fantasy football, get a league together in your family or with your friends that let’s the girls have a team. First off, you need to explain the premise of the game. My wife is always shaking her head when I enter the pre-draft war-room (my den) to develop my strategy. Once she understands the game, she won’t be laughing anymore! Of course they won’t be as harcore as you, but if you can get them rooting for a few players on Sunday, your chances of watching more football skyrocket.

2. Get her the gear. Every girl desires deep down inside to look cute in a football jersey of their favorite team. (Which yes, sometimes is only derived by color) Get some little team shorts and maybe a team bandana for her, and in no time she will be gearing up to rip off her Sunday dress and put a number 34 on her back.

3. You take care of the Sunday Meal. Use the half an hour after church and before the game to get the meal prepared for the family….therefore she will feel appreciated and will more often than not….assist you with your drink during the game!
