glutton n.: trencherman

Thursday, May 6, 2021 by Peter Leave a Comment

“Deeelicious!” says [Tommy Lasorda], the 59-year-old manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers, an epic trencherman who claims that he “never met a meal I didn’t like.” In fact he carries a spare fork in his back pocket, just in case he runs into a dish he can’t resist. (Todd Gold, Host: Next to His Family and His Beloved Dodger Blue, Tommy Lasorda Lives for Food — and His Restaurant, People, 07/13/1987, p. 103.)
