Editorial Reviews
Product Description
From Flatbush to Hollywood, no other professional sports franchise has enjoyed such a colorful bicoastal history as the Dodgers. A legendary collection of Brooklyn and Los Angeles greats describe their favorite day in Dodger Blue.
About the Author
In this photographic journey, official team historian and former baseball reporter Mark Langill details the surprising confluence of circumstances that make the Los Angeles Dodgers so extraordinary. The team's historic move from the East Coast signaled a major westward expansion of the major leagues. In 1978, the team made history by being the first to draw more than 3 million fans in one season. Thanks to unprecedented community support and the amazing abilities of its players, the Dodgers have remained one of sport's most storied franchises and an endless source of pride for the city of Los Angeles..
