Dodger Stadium – Rewinding the Clock on the 2020 World Series Champs’ Home with a Hollywood Facelift

For baseball fans over the age of forty, it may be surprising to learn that Dodger Stadium is now well past middle-age and is the third oldest ballpark in use in Major League Baseball. Given the rapid construction of new stadia and ballparks in the 1990s and 2000s, most of the classic ballparks such as Comiskey Park, Tiger Stadium, Yankee Stadium and Cleveland’s Municipal Stadium have met their demise via the wrecking ball. As a result, only Boston’s Fenway Park (1912) and Chicago’s Wrigley Field (1914) were built before the Dodgers carved their stadium out of Chavez Ravine near downtown Los Angeles.
