SAN DIEGO, CA — They didn’t see him take home a W, but last night Tyler Glasnow’s parents and girlfriend Meghan Murphy were in the crowd, and Dodgers play-by-play man Joe Davis recounted the absolute baller move that Glasnow pulled to meet his sweetie of three years.
According to the story, Glasnow and Meghan got acquainted during his time with the Tampa Bay Rays. He’s told the story before, but this might have been the first time it’s been mentioned on the SportsNet broadcast. Here’s how he recounted the story to the LA Times Mike DiGiovanna:
“I saw a girl who was kind of cute, so I had our team photographer zoom in on her — this just sounds very weird — but she was wholesome, with a girl-next-door look,” Glasnow said. “So I wrote my phone number on a ball, threw it to her and told her to text me. She came to the next game, threw me a ball with her number and told me to text her.
“I didn’t think anything would come of it, but then I met her, and she was awesome. She has a really good personality, loves to travel and is really fun, so it’s super easy. That was the first time I’ve ever thrown a ball to someone [with my phone number on it], too. And I still don’t think she believes me.”
