This week, the baseball world mourned the passing of beloved Dodgers Pitcher, Fernando Valenzuela. In this rewind episode from February of 2022, we tell the sad story about Dodger Stadium, which starts with a piece about Valenzuela. Dodger Stadium seats 56,000. It’s the 3rd oldest, and the largest stadium in Major League Baseball. But the story of how – and where – it was built is a difficult tale of the displacement of an ethnic minority community. This episode explores the history of Chavez Ravine and how a Mexican-American community was destroyed in the 1950s. We play the quick quiz with Comedian and Magician Harrison Greenbaum.
