It’s the Dodgers versus the Mets in the National League Division Series, and the Los Angeles and New York police chiefs are betting some serious meat on the matchup.
Los Angeles Police Chief Charlie Beck and his predecessor, New York Police Commissioner Bill Bratton, announced a wager Tuesday, with the winner getting a free deli meal, most likely pastrami.
If the Dodgers win, Bratton will treat Beck to lunch at New York’s famed Katz’s Deli.
If the Mets win, Beck will be picking up the tab for lunch at Langer’s Deli in Los Angeles.
“As with our Kings-Rangers Stanley Cup bet in 2014 when the Kings won, it’s too bad that Commissioner Bratton will not be able to enjoy his favorite Los Angeles deli,” Beck said.
