1960 • Baseball Clip • Fond Remembrances of Ebbets Field

- Ebbets Field- Jackie Robinson- Ralph Branca- Carl Erskine- Brooklyn Dodgers -The Brooklyn Dodgers, beloved by generations of fans, bid farewell to Flatbush and headed west to Los Angeles, leaving a void in the hearts of their devoted followers. Yet, amidst the departure of this iconic baseball team, a symbol of their glory and legacy remained steadfast - Ebbets Field. For years, Ebbets Field stood as a reminder of the heroic feats of Duke Snyder, Jackie Robinson, Ralph Branca, Carl Erskine, and Pee-wee Reese. It echoed with the cheers of passionate fans and the crack of a bat against a baseball. It was more than a ballpark; it was a sacred place where dreams and memories were made. However, even this last glimmer of hope is fading away. Soon, Ebbets Field will be dismantled, leaving behind only tears, cherished memories, and a few empty beer cans. To pay tribute to the fans who once gathered at this hallowed ground, we invite you to join us on Be Our Guest for a nostalgic journey through time. Tonight, we are honored to introduce you to the Brooklyn Symphony, a group of passionate fans who, for years, made Ebbets Field come alive with their musical talents and unwavering support.
