When the American public eventually learned of the lawyers’ actions, they were horrified, outraged, and vengeful.

If These Walls Could Talk: Los Angeles Dodgers
Now revised and updated for 2023! Since moving from Brooklyn to Los Angeles in 1958, the Dodgers have had an eventful— and frequently successful— history. From playing in the 100,000-seat Coliseum to seven World Series titles, from Fernandomania to Mannywood, and from Sandy Koufax to Clayton Kershaw, the Boys in Blue have long been a team to watch. This history of the Dodgers provides a closer look at the great moments and the lowlights that have made them one of the seminal teams in the major leagues. Through multiple interviews conducted with current and former players, readers will meet the athletes, coaches, and management and share in their moments of triumph and defeat. The author recalls key moments in Dodgers history such as the building and breakup of the Garvey-Lopes-Russell-Cey infield, the sad decline of Steve Howe, the amazing comeback at the tail-end of the 1980 season, and the Frank McCourt saga. If These Walls Could Talk: Los Angeles Dodgers brings the storied history of the team come to life.
