Model Center Fielder

If you haven’t seen it yet, it’s a one-of-a-kind.

 

Dodger center fielder Matt Kemp is featured in the May 2010 GQ Magazine, modeling tight-fitting couture by the likes of Polo and Armani to name a few.

 

How rare is it that a Dodger has graced the pages of the magazine and been photographed by a top fashion photographer?

 

Maybe never.

 

The article describes Kemp as a country-boy thrown into the Los Angeles limelight. The pictures thrust him even deeper into that light.

 

He posed for the photos in early March at the Dodgers’ Spring Training home, Camelback Ranch — Glendale.

 

Smoke billowed from a machine as he was encouraged by photographer Michel Comte to pose in different scenes — behind the chain-linked fence in the bullpen, in center field and around the diamond.

 

The final product is for all eyes to see right now.
