Justin Turner chips in a nacho-destroying homer during Dodgers win

LA Times  

Covered in cheese, a fan holds Justin Turner’s home run ball after it ball landed in his nachos during the third inning Wednesday night at Dodger Stadium. Turner’s third home run of the young season, a towering solo shot to left-center field in the third inning, absolutely destroyed a fan’s plate of nachos in the new “Home Run Seats” lining the outfield walls, splattering yellow cheese sauce all over the chest and sleeves of the fan’s dark-green hooded sweatshirt. “Yeah, tonight was the first,” Turner said, when asked if he’d ever hit a home run into a plate of nachos before. Justin Turner watches his home run ball clear the center field wall during the third inning of the Dodgers’ 4-2 win over Colorado.
