It’s every baseball kid’s dream to play at Dodger Stadium, and when you also hit a home run, it becomes a special day.

Senior shortstop Chris Jacobs of Westchester is having a memorable day Saturday at Dodger Stadium in the City Section Division II championship game against Monroe. In the first inning, he hit a double off the wall in right field.

Then, in the second inning, he hit a three-run home run into the bullpen in left field, giving Westchester a 5-1 lead.

Jacobs batted .500 with nine home runs during the regular season.
