Description:
Dodger Stadium is included in the Top 10 most beautiful and legendary baseball stadiums. Even if you don’t know anything about baseball, it’s never too late to learn about this stadium. The arena is the largest baseball stadium in the world. It is one of the last stadiums in the United States built just for baseball.
A distinctive feature of the stadium, which opened in 1962, is the wavy roofs on top of each pavilion. And from the stands, if you look north of the mountains, you can see the inscription "Think Blue".
The stadium is designed and built in such a way that the entire stadium structure can withstand earthquakes – a priority in California. Despite having a maximum capacity of 56,000 spectators, in 2009, the match between the LA Dodgers and the Pittsburgh Pirates was attended by a record number of fans and fans for the stadium - 57,099 people.
The administration allocates generous resources for the maintenance of the stadium. For example, every year the stadium is repainted, and the team of gardeners works all year round to maintain the green area in its best condition.
The Los Angeles Dodgers baseball club plays their home games here. In 1984, as part of the Olympics, there were demonstration matches in baseball. In 1987, Pope John Paul II celebrated Mass at the stadium. Concerts here were performed by the Beatles, Depesh Maud, Elton John, Madonna and many other stars.
