Tom Lasorda is quite the expert when it comes to food. And he’s also a wine entrepreneur. His pinot grigio, created by Casa Torelli Imports of Santa Monica, Calif., was named best wine in its class at the Los Angeles International Wine & Spirits’ first Wine World of Sports competition. Lasorda sent a bottle to his friend Whitey Ford, who was in Los Angeles last week. “All the balls I signed for Tommy over the years, and he sends me a $3 bottle of wine?” Ford told Lasorda’s assistant, Colin Gunderson. Gunderson pointed out it was actually a $35 bottle of wine. Los Angeles Times
