  • This is so sad - that Walter O'Malley had to do this to the borough of Brooklyn.

    My heart weeps for Brooklyn, and I only wish I could have gotten to see the Brooklyn Dodgers play at Ebbets Field.

    Thanks for posting, friend.

  • The dodgers should have stayed in brooklyn

  • could have been one of the cathedrals of baseball. instead all we have now is fenway and wrigley. not even yankee stadium anymore

  • Walter O'Malley is not entirely to blame. Robert Moses who was the construction czar of NYC wanted to build them a new stadium in the location where Shea Stadium ended up. O'Malley wanted the city to sell him land for a new stadium at the Atlantic rail yards, where there was easy access to trains and was IN Brooklyn. Of course O'Malley could have bought the land himself but he figured if Moses wanted to pay for the land in Queens then... Moving to LA was a smart business decision.

  • Bye Hilda, bye symphonie, bye vince gully, bye NYC baseball, Don't It Make You Want To Go Home Joe South

  • It sure is cool seeing videos of all dead people.

  • @TH3Omaster fuck LA

  • this will continue to happen as long as the public continues to give millions to private owners. if the public is going to subsidize sports teams then they should get the revenue and partial or whole ownership.

    this will never happen in green bay where the team is owned by the citizens.

    the first thing to do is get the courts to stop sports owners from blocking the sale of teams to it's rightful owners. the fans and the cities they belong.

  • I was 9 when they left. It made me cry and turned me into a Yankees fan

  • Looking back, it is still quite a disgrace that baseball allowed the Dodgers to leave Brooklyn. Thanks for the video!

  • @tommusicfan19 maybe have been the death of baseball when it was game

  • @bigvandave na L.A. brings in too big of a crowd every game
