Dodger Stadium Has a Hidden History You Should Know

from Bloomberg Business of Sports · host Bloomberg

How the Dodgers left Brooklyn has spawned a cottage industry of books, but very little has been written about how they got to Los Angeles -- and how the city picked a site for the ballpark. "Stealing Home: Los Angeles, the Dodgers, and the Lives Caught in Between" is Eric Nusbaum's gripping new history of one of sport's iconics ballparks and it's a must-read, detailing the lives torn apart ahead of the baseball's team arrival. Jason Kelly, Michael Barr and Mike Lynch talk with Nusbaum about how many of the issues around inequality unfortunately resonate today, and how sports fans can be more than an "armchair GM" and think about their home team critically.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
