Fernando Valenzuela was on the minds of the Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees at Friday’s opener of the World Series between the storied franchises. An informal memorial at a sign welcoming fans to Dodger Stadium that popped up soon after the pitcher's death on Tuesday was still going strong three days later.

In the hallways underneath the main level that lead to both clubhouses, the walls are lined with Dodgers award winners. For Valenzuela's Cy Young and Rookie of the Year awards, the Dodgers have placed blue ribbons on the corner. Same with his display for having his number retired. There are reminders everywhere.
