A public funeral Mass for legendary Dodgers pitcher Fernando Valenzuela was held on Wednesday, November 5, at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in downtown Los Angeles. Valenzuela, who died on October 22 at the age of 63, was a beloved figure known for sparking 'Fernandomania' in 1981, when he became the only player to win both the National League Cy Young and Rookie of the Year awards in the same season. The public was invited to attend the funeral on a first-come, first-serve basis, with a livestream available for those unable to attend in person. Valenzuela's influence extended beyond the field as he served as a Spanish-language broadcaster for the Dodgers for over two decades. His passing prompted numerous tributes, including a six-story mural in Boyle Heights and the Dodgers wearing patches with his number '34' during their postseason games. The funeral was attended by many former teammates, family members, and fans, reflecting his lasting impact on both the team and the Los Angeles community.
