Dodgers Baseball Tickets - Dodger Stadium
The Los Angeles Dodgers baseball tickets to the Dodger Stadium are always sold out. Fans are expecting a great game from them. They had a bad season in 2007. They finished fourth place in the National League West Division. They also missed the playoffs. The hope that the Dodgers will play good in the 2008 season comes from the fact that Joe Torre has become the new manager after Grady Little resigned from the post. Plus Gary Bennett, Andruw Jones, and Hiroki Kuroda have been added to the roaster. The present Los Angeles Dodgers play in the National League West division. Here they face competition from teams such as San Diego Padres, Colorado Rookies, Arizona Diamondbacks, and San Francisco Giants. Since 1962, the Dodgers have been playing their home games at the Dodger Stadium, which has the capacity to sit 56,000 baseball fans. When fans come to watch their favorite team at the Dodgers Stadium, they get a grand view and they get to taste the foot-long Dodger Dog. With great views of downtown Los Angeles, Elysian Hills, and the San Gabriel Mountains, watching a game at the Dodgers Stadium is nothing short of ecstasy. The Dodgers have a great history. They first became a Major League Baseball franchise in 1890. Then they were known as the Brooklyn Bridegrooms. Then in 1913 they took up the name Brooklyn Dodgers because players were seen dodging trolleys outside the stadium to reach the games. They won the first National League championship for the Dodgers, who have so far 21 National League championships to their name. Dodgers baseball tickets were soon becoming hot. Brooklyn’s Golden Decade started in 1947. It started when they signed up Jackie Robinson, the first black player in the Major League Baseball. He had support of great players like Pee Wee Reese, Arky Vaughan, Gil Hodges, Roy Campanella and Don Newcombe. Brooklyn Dodgers won six pennants and one World Series championship. With a great team and great players no wonder Dodgers baseball tickets were always sold out. In 1958, the Dodgers moved to Los Angeles. They have since won five World Series Titles. Walter Alston and Tommy Lasorda are the two managers under whom the Dodgers won these five World Series championships- 1959, 1963, 1965, 1981, and 1988. Both of them are in the Hall of Fame managers. During this time fans got to see some great players like Sandy Koufax, Rick Sutcliffe, Steve Howe, Fernando Valenzuela, Steve Sax and Orel Hershiser. In 1996, Lasorda, who had managed the team for twenty years, stepped down. The Dodgers have been a successful team. Since 1901, 175 million Dodgers baseball tickets have been sold out. This is an all-time record for all professional sport franchises. With the signing of Joe Torre, who has been one of the most successful skippers in the history of baseball, fans are really hoping that the Dodgers would bring home another World Series championship. With a great roster, fans should get their hands on tickets as soon as possible. One way to do that would be buy online. However, take care to buy only from an authorized ticket broker.
