Andre Ethier Reveals a Special Gift from a Teammate

The best moment from today’s media session at Dodger Stadium was when a reporter in the clubhouse asked Andre Ethier about his favorite items in his locker.  Andre responds by reaching in and pulling a bottle of Dom Perignon champagne out of his locker.  He explains that the unopened bottle was a gift from fellow teammate Doug Mientkiewicz – a gift to celebrate Ethier’s first 100 RBI season.  The bottle was inscribed with Ethier’s accomplishment and it was clear the gift meant a lot to him.
A really thoughtful move by the veteran Mientkiewicz.  Great job, Doug!

Dom Perignon...Nice!
