Michael Elizondo is the self-proclaimed Traveling Correspondent of the staff who has been to 67 regular season games over the 2021, 2022, and 2023 regular seasons. Michael is working on a travelogue, On the Road with Eli(zondo) and Adric, nicknamed the Guide, for any traveling Dodgers fan who happens to want to see a Dodger game anywhere in the league.
Michael primarily writes Guide entries, commentaries, interviews, and investigative essays related to matters related to the Dodgers. He has been a Staff Writer at True Blue LA since January 2021, after being a commenter at TBLA starting in the 2015 season. Michael was born in Orange County, grew up near Fresno, and attended professional school in Sacramento, establishing himself as an attorney in the Bay Area, before returning home to the Central Valley.
Michael carries three things with him to every Dodger game he goes: an external battery for his phone, a photo of himself and his late father, and Adric, a stuffed animal, made by Michael's sister as a good luck charm for when he worked internationally. Adric goes to every Dodger game that Michael goes to, rain or shine.
