| The Phillies begin a four game series at Chavez Ravine with a tough 11 inning loss. Matt Kemp's solo shot for the Dodgers in the 3rd was offset by a solo blast for Carlos Ruiz in the 5th for a 1-1 tie. It would remain 1-1 until the bottom of the 11th when Rafael Furcal leads off the inning for LA with a single and Orlando Hudson rips one to the wall with Furcal, who was off with the pitch on a hit and run attempt, scores easily for the winning run. With all of the new ballparks opening and new teams in recent years, I found out an interesting tidbit regarding Dodger Stadium. It opened in 1962 which makes it the third oldest park in the major leagues, believe it or not, behind Fenway Park and Wrigley Field. Kind of surprised me a bit. In another interesting bit of trivia, there was also a Wrigley Field in Los Angeles which the Angels had as their home field in their first season of 1961, having been a minor league stadium since the mid 1920s. The Angels then shared Dodger Stadium with the Dodgers for the next four years until Anaheim Stadium opened in 1966. That is how the Chavez Ravine name came about as that is what the Angels called the stadium when they played there too. The LA Wrigley Field was torn down in the mid 1960s. |
