Dodgers fan blasted by security during on-field proposal is engaged: ‘He’s a little sore’
Not all marriage proposals are created equal.
One fan of the Los Angeles Dodgers proved that to be true Thursday night time at Dodgers Stadium, working onto the sphere earlier than getting on one knee and looking out towards the stands.
The fan, Ricardo Juarez, was blasted by safety as he proposed, unable to finish the duty at hand.
MLB ADMITS WRONG CALL WAS MADE AGAINST METS AMID NEW TIMER RULES
Juarez was cited by Los Angeles police and launched, later proposing to Stephani Gutierrez close to a Motel 8 on Sundown Boulevard. Gutierrez mentioned sure.
“He says he is a bit of sore, however I feel he’ll really feel it tomorrow,” Gutierrez advised ABC 7 in Los Angeles. “He would not care, he is like, ‘I might do it once more.’”
Juarez was going to suggest within the stands earlier than deciding to do it on the sphere, aided by liquid braveness and wanting the world to see how a lot he liked the mom of his son.
“We have been so near the sphere he simply thought it was really easy to simply bounce off and do it,” Gutierrez mentioned.
The couple ended the night time engaged and with the Dodgers 1-0 on the season after beating the Arizona Diamondbacks 8-2 to kick off the 2023 marketing campaign.
LA dropped its first recreation of the yr Friday night time, giving up an eighth-inning, two-run residence run to Kyle Lewis because the Diamondbacks beat the Dodgers, 2-1.
Juarez has been banned from all Dodgers video games for at the least one yr, based on the report.

Shaun White admits itch to return to competitive snowboarding is 'always there'
Shaun White retired from competitive snowboarding following a fourth-place finish in the halfpipe event at the 2022 Winter Olympics.
White was only in his mid-30s when he decided to step away from the spot he dominated for so long. He won three gold medals at the Olympics dating back to 2006 in Italy, not to mention the 10 X Games gold medals he racked up during his illustrious career.
With the trend of great athletes possibly second-guessing retirement, White admitted in an interview with Fox News Digital that the itch to return to snowboarding is “always there.”
“It’s just kind of maintaining this sort of like, well, ‘you stopped for a reason.’ And I spoke to a lot of athletes and they were just like, ‘It never goes away,’” he said. “You’re like watching TV and (say) I could’ve made that catch. They’re just like that’s just embedded and ingrained in your for so many years of doing it. But there’s like this amazing life waiting for you outside of that.”
White said he picked the brains of some famous athletes about how they look at their careers when they are off the field or out of the pool.
EX-OLYMPICS STAR SHAUN WHITE RIDES WITH CVS FOR NEW SNACK AND BEVERAGE LINE: ‘THEY’VE REALLY UPPED THE GAME’
“Guys like Michael Strahan, Michael Phelps and I even ran into Tom Brady, which was actually great because he did the, ‘Hey I’m gonna come back’ and yeah it’s hard to let go of that feeling. And it was cool to talk to him about (it) like, ‘Man, we did it. We had our moment and we can celebrate that because the history books will show,’” White said.
He told Fox News Digital he is developing a solid career outside of competition but is still practicing tricks. While he may not be competing against other nations come 2026, he expects to be back in Italy to cheer on his friends.
“It’s definitely fun, and I’ve still been able to get back out on the mountain and work on tricks and have fun and ride. I have my own brand called White Space and we do boards and outerwear and all this stuff. I’m still involved in the sport through that. I was still testing products. We have now young riders that we sponsor. It’s been cool but yeah definitely, like, I’ll be there probably on the microphone or something for that Games. Definitely cheering my friends on.”

EA Sports College Football 25 cover athletes, release date revealed after 11-year hiatus
This July, there will be a lot of sports fans tapping back into their childhood.
Earlier this year, EA Sports announced that its College Football video game series will return this year after last being released in 2013.
On Thursday, the brand announced that the game will be available for play on July 19.
This year’s video game features three athletes headlining the cover: Texas’ Quinn Ewers, Colorado’s Travis Hunter and Michigan’s Donovan Edwards, the latter of whom had two rushing touchdowns en route to winning the national championship.
Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe and Carson Beck of Georgia can also be seen, as can Ohio State’s Quinshon Judkins.
The series began in 1993 with the release of Bill Walsh College Football, and the game was released under the legendary coach’s name for two years.
The name changed to College Football USA for the 1996 and 1997 seasons before changing to NCAA Football from 1998 to 2014.
The game was on hiatus for a while due to disputes among EA, the NCAA and college athletes. Each installment since the 1997 version featured a cover athlete as video games normally do. However, the cover athlete wasn’t permitted to be paid for his image and likeness.
DABO SWINNEY DISCUSSES WHY CLEMSON HAS BEEN ONLY SCHOOL THAT HASN’T LANDED TRANSFER VIA PORTAL
Plus, in each installment, game players were unable to see the names of the athletes when controlling them. Instead, Reggie Bush, for example, would be listed as “HB No. 5” and Tim Tebow as “QB No. 15.”
But now, with name, image and likeness running rampant, game players will know exactly who is on the field, rather than just a position and number.
EA Sports announced a return of the game three years ago and even said a game would be released last summer, but it did not happen.
The last cover athlete was Denard Robinson of the Michigan Wolverines.
