Congratulations Dodgers fans, I'm just upset that we not only fucked up the way that we did, but that we couldn't make most of the previous games competitive. Shit sucks but it is what it is.

Oh, I know what it is.
I've been digitizing my Looney Tunes collection. And I must've heard "Slide DiMaggio, Slide!" about a million times along with "And now coming to bat for the Brooklyn Dodgers is ... Joe DiMaggio!" I don't know which play by play announcer Daffy and Bugs were copying, but he must've said it a lot to be copied into several cartoons.
I probably should have clued in that these cartoons were made well before 1958.
I feel a little silly :)
FYI, DiMaggio played for the Yankees.
Unless the guys at Hanna-Barbara were intentionally getting the teams wrong, in that case it’s whatever
