Mario may have been lucky for the Dodgers, because they won the game, 3-2, in extra innings.
Mario received tips from Hall of Fame manager Tommy Lasorda and several Dodgers players before the first pitch. He also took batting practice before the game!
Mario then sat with friends in the Dugout Club to watch the game. Must be nice to be apart of his entourage!
If you missed Mario at the game yesterday, have no fear! You have another chance to catch a celebrity tonight. Whitney Port will be there tonight and Matthew McConaughey will be at the Stadium to throw out the first pitch before the Dodgers take on the New York Mets at 7:10 p.m tomorrow night, May 20.
Matthew will attend with game with approximately 50 kids from his j.k. livin foundation, which is dedicated to helping teenage kids lead active lives and make healthy choices so they can become great men and women.
