Former Dodgers greats Steve Garvey and Orel Hershiser are forming an exploratory ownership group in case their former team goes up for sale.
In the wake of financial struggles that have left the team in limbo, Garvey approached Hershiser and the two launched the Garvey-Hershiser Group.
"We've always talked and communicated through the years," Hershiser, an ESPN analyst, told the Los Angeles Daily News. "He was a little more of a role model for me, the way he did things. I was like, 'That's what I want to do.' He's been a good businessman.
"When he called and said he wanted me to be part of this group, I said, 'Garv, I'd always be interested in helping and doing something like this that would be a lot of fun.' We're forming a group that's investigating situations as they arise. That would be very interesting for me."
Hershiser met with Garvey and other possible investors in Los Angeles on Friday, according to the Daily News.
