Fleece Blanket Night at Dodger Stadium sure seemed like a good idea. Some 54,387 fans turned out earlier this week, lured by a game with the Arizona Diamondbacks and the promise of a Dodger blue blanket celebrating past World Series championships.

One of Mike Maxwell's workshops looks a little like the rec room of the luckiest teenage boy of the 1970s.
The place is stocked with model rockets and remote-controlled airplanes; minibikes and motorcycles.
