100 Mind-Blowing Dodgers Secrets & Facts That Every Dodgers Fan Needs to Know About Dodger Stadium! 

You forgot to mention the 18th inning World Series. The longest World Series game in history. Go Dodgers

My mom was at Sandy Koufax's perfect game in 1965 and she never told me until I was 35 years old! She apparently didn't realize it was a big deal!

My favorite fact: First place I drove after getting my first drivers license was to Dodger stadium opening day 1977.

So much rich history has taken place at Dodger Stadium, amazing. One of the many reasons why it's still the best stadium. Great video

Great Job Doug. Really impressed with this clip. Born in 1953 and growing up with a lot of this history it brought back many cherished memories. It also taught me a lot of other Dodger trivia which just goes to show you can never get enough of the Dodgers. You are my favorite sports commentator for a reason.

That was awesome thanks go blue

That was awesome Doug!!! Born in 1962 and raised in Los Angeles, your history lesson was definitely reminiscent of my childhood, upbringing and memories. You have a great RU-vid presence! Thank you!!

Wonderful historical survey by DMAC. I was stuck in the parking lot traffic when the game began against the Mariners when I heard Vin Scully on the car radio announce that Ichiro had just knocked one out of the park.

Rick Mondays Flag save in1976

I remember going to a game against the Oakland A's with my grandfather....might have been a world series game where the crazy owner of the A's brought his donkeys into the stadium and paraded them around before the game. I think it was in the 70's. God I miss those days!

Dodgers need to win another World Series and win it at home. In 2009 when two Los Angeles County Firefighter's died fighting the Station fire in the nearby Angeles National Forest there memorial was held at Dodger stadium, The parking lot was filled with fire apparatus from all over Southern Cal.

Doug,... bravo! Well done. I have so loved going there over the years. Even though I do have my favorite seats (no, not the field seats, but the center front row reserved section), there truly is no bad seat in the house. Trivia for you, I once even had the privilege of sitting in the long gone dugout seats that were down below the field level between the opposing team dugouts. Such a unique experience, designed to give you the same view as the players in their dugouts. Dodgers Stadium, truly blue heaven on earth. Never understood why anyone would want the game to speed up, (unless the Dodgers were losing, haha). I loved going to double headers, back when, You would watch both games. I even saw an 18 inning game there once, and loved it. Thanks for the info I never new about. I loved this video! Wish I could hit the like button more than once!

Thanks Doug, I remember watching the Dodger 30 HR foursome and going on a pilgrimage to Dodger Stadium to see Fernando gun them down. I remember my Mom praying for him to win and knowing which day when Fernando would pitch. How about doing a bit on the trophy hall as well as the seat where Gibby's bomb landed.

The Beatles are my favorite band of all time and the dodgers are my favorite sports team of all time … it’s like poetry. I’ve also seen Paul McCartney play there 2x

Eric Clapton, The Beatles, and Dodgers?!?! Win win for me I’d say😂

"Trashstros" you got that right! 💙⚾

Loved this. Thank you for putting it together. Great work.

Doug, this was great, considering the weekend punch in the gut on the field, this was a perfect time for some uplifting Dodgers shwag. Thank you for putting that together and going above and beyond. , I know there are a lot of us who really appreciate all your hard work,

Forgot to mention that they paid home owners and residents paltry amts and dislocated them so Chavez Ravine could be built.

I don’t understand how this is the first I’m hearing of this channel. Glad I found you guys. Bleed blue!

When the Dodgers are playing at home, I always attend the game on the 17th for my birthday. 2000 was the first game I missed

Great video!...👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Go Blue!

Would have been nice to mention, Roz Wyman was the 22-year-old City Council member who got Walter O'Malley to move to LA. Another fun fact, O'Malley wasn't going to come west alone, he talked the owner of the Giants to move to SF at the same time.

I was around 11 when my best friend's mom invited me to join them to Dodger stadium and man was I blown away! been a huge Dodger fan since and have sat just about every section, no place like Dodger stadium

Love these Dodger history videos! Great job.

I actually attended the perfect game thrown by Dennis Martinez of the Montreal Expos against the Dodgers at Dodger Stadium in July 1991. I was just a kid, I didn't even know what was going on until the 8th inning lol. And not only have I been to Dodger games at the Stadium, but also a Guns & Roses concert. Great video Dmac!!

The Houston what ? 16:25. " trash throws " ?? haha . Way to go D Mack !! Go Dodgers .

The most famous home run in baseball history was hit there ⚾⚾⚾

Good job. For additions I got: 1. First and only regular season game # 165 in 1962 (Maury Wills played in all of them). 2. Olympics baseball in 1984 - only time in history; 3. Fernando Tatis, Sr. being the only big leaguer to hit 2 grand slams in one inning (both against Chan Ho Park - man, did his ERA blow up!). 4. In Koufax's perfect game, Cubs pitcher Bob Hendley only allowed one hit (which didn't factor in the 1 Dodger run) and one walk. I believe that is the least number of hits in a game in big league history. And only 2 baserunners total for the whole game, which I believe is also a big league record. 5. Wills and Drysdale set stolen base and shutout records there. (I was at Drysdale's #6). 6. And if you're going to include the four 30 homer guys you gotta mention the first all switch-hitting infield and later the infield that played the most games together in history. 7. Mr. Ed sliding into home and the made-for-TV Hollywood All-Stars vs. Major League All Stars in the early 60's that saw Roberto Clemente pitch fast pitch softball, Eddie Feigner strike out Mays (and others) and Jimmy Piersall and Emmett Ashford switch places during an at-bat. I was there for that, too. Great fun. 8. Of course, the stadium itself was a modern marvel when it was first built, being the first stadium in the world to NOT have support poles supporting the upper decks, so it was the first stadium where no seat had an obstruction blocking the view of the field. 9. Dodger Stadium originally had the world's largest scoreboards. 10. I believe it was the first (and maybe still the only) stadium to have it's own gas station in the parking lot. 11. The stadium has the largest seating capacity of any baseball only stadium in the world. 12. And the parking lot was the world's largest when built, now #2.

Fluffy had his comedy show lol

Houston trAShTROS 👍🏽😁🤣

The houston trashtros comment made me happy af

“The Houston trash-troes” 🤣🤣

Let's Go Dodgers

Jose Canseco getting his Hummer impounded during the 1988 world series because he had a 50 cal mounted on it. Although it was unloaded and didnt possess any live ammunition at the time

Amazing video!

Fun Facts as a young Dodgers fan back in the early 1970s: They used to have the “Dodgers-Pepsi Fan Club”. To join you had to mail in $1.00 and six rubber bottle cap liners. A few weeks later in the mail you would get a Dodgers t-shirt, membership card, and tickets to 6 games (pavilion seats). What a deal that was! I celebrated my birthday there (I think my 13th) and they put my name up on the left field scoreboard. I was at a game about 1974 when a streaker raced across left field, delaying the game for a few minutes. My mom sang the National Anthem two years in a row standing out in center field accompanied by Helen Dell on the organ. A friend mine had access (through his dad’s work) to season tickets first row behind home plate, near the Dodgers dugout. I got to use those seats on a number of occasions. Also, back then tickets were AFFORDABLE! You could get the nose bleed seats over the press boxes for about 5 bucks. I remember going one time and brought a baggie full of pennies to buy a ticket at the ticket booth in the parking lot. The attendant was very irritated, but I got my ticket! I never tried that again. Now living out of state, I decided I wanted to see a game a couple of years ago while in L.A. After seeing the ticket prices I changed my mind. I doubt I’ll be back to another game. Very sad…

I live walking distance from Dodger Stadium.....I LOVE IT

I was born a Dodger..Dec. 1957..I LOVE LA!!

I’m currently employed at Dodger Stadium found this Video very Good/Interesting !

When I was a teenager I used to LOVED to go to Dodgers Stadium and go to the DOUBLEHEADERS 2 games 1 admission and seat in the BLEACHERS for $1.75 cents and watch DON DRYSDALE a REAL PITCHER and watch his HISTORIC SHUT OUTS. Don also hit a few home runs when I was there.

Awesome vid 👍🏻

Let's go Dodgers!!!

The only multi grand slam being hit in the same inning by the same player!!! I was at the game Fernando Tatis SR hit two grand slams in the same inning off of chan ho park while he was on the St. Louis Cardinals

This truley is one of the cooler ballparks in America

So the moral of the story is the San Francisco Giants broke up The Beatles!

dope 🔥

Giants fan here, thoroughly enjoyed this video. Cool stuff

Awesome 👍

Thanks this has become my favorite video Dodger blue history

There was an all star cricket match at dodger stadium in 2015 that included some of the best players of all time.

thx for video

That's Gold, Doug, gold! Thanks.

They have the absolute BEST hot dogs in the MLB. Nothing tops a Dodger Dog!!

Fleetwood Mac recorded the video for Tusk with the USC Marching Band at Dodger Stadium!

I was there when mark McGuire hit it out of the park

Awesome behind and into the stadium news

So awesome 👍👍

Lol Leslie Nielsen legend! Great video!

great video. make more video like this please

Went for the very first time in 2016 (to see the visiting team) and left a dodger fan and have been coming back ever since.

Tatis Jr also hit it out of Dodger stadium last season off of Tony Gonsolin. I was there and man was that ball smashed 😳😳

This made me so proud to be a Dodger fan❤️

This was cool

Damn I love Dodger stadium

The Pavillions at Dodger Stadium is the only sections in dodger stadium where u will find crushed ice in your beverages compared to the usual cubed ice(not ICE CUBE) that you traditionally find throughout the other areas in the stadium. Why? Because during the Barry Bonds balco roiding era fans in the left field pavilion who were known for being a little rowdy at times especially when Barry and the Giants came into town didnt have an option to purchase beer because alcoholic bevy's were not for sale in those sections(large number of fist fights and fan altercations) which meant options for drinks were limited to non alcoholic bevys and the ice in those bevys was being used as projectiles and fans were known to be turning their leftover ice into live ammunition and launching ice missiles at barry when all other projectiles in their arsenals had been spent. It was easy to do when the Pavilion at the time used a cafeteria styled approach when purchasing food and the drinks. They would pre fill soft drinks with ice and drink of choice to try and cut down wait times and lines for the "all you can eat" ticketed fans. By prefilling the drinks it somehow made the ice clump together and form a rather large piece of ice which then enabled a better object to hurl 25 to 40 ft effectively placing Barry Bonds in the active engagement distance of rowdy Dodger fans with a semi decent arm. And with the player having his back turned to the enemy combatants im sure it wasnt long before he was being peppered with the frozen missles that the Dodgers had inadvertently been arming their faithful with. Barry being the bitch he was probably didnt hesitate to complain about the bombardments prompting the switch to less lethal crushed ice and disarming the dodger faithful of their guerilla warfare styled weaponry against human growth hormon abusing cheater

I love the dodgers

Don Drysdale pitched 58,2/3 scoreless innings after Robert Kennedy was killed. The same week.

80% I Did Not Know .. Thanks

I was there the last day of the season , Dusty’s last at bat of the year when he hit his 30th home run to make the quartet.

I was the happiest kid in the world when my Dodgers moved to my home town in 1958. I thought they had the coolest name in sports so, naturally became my favorite team. Bled Dodger blue since Brooklyn! Boy Scout trip to the Coliseum and several to Dodger stadium to see them play. Dad even took me to a world series game and I saw Mick hit one out off Koufax. The Stadium should remain Dodger Stadium forever!

High five is the best. It’s used by the whole world constantly!

Great video. Except, the Cincinnati Reds were NOT the World Champions, they were the National League champions. The Yankees had beaten the Reds in the World Series in the prior year.

You forgot OJ Simpson movie scene with Leslie Neilson!

Cool stadium.

That belli joke is gold 6:00

Bob Uecker filmed his famous commercial there..."I must be in the front row"

It’s been 16 loooooong years since I’ve been

Don’t forget about all the people that got kicked out of there home to build dodger stadium. Other than that, this was a awesome video

You forgot to mention that Rick McGill has never been to Dodger Stadium. And has been trying to get there for 50 years! It's been at the top of my bucket list since I was a kid.

Where did you find Doug McKain? He's the best part of Dodgers Nation. Is there any way to get these in a podcast form?

This is a true story although i do not know the exact facts but being an ex employee who has had access to alot of places the public never gets to see Ive been told by some veteran long standing employees that work off hours(non gameday/after hours) that the place is haunted. And that one time in particular they had suspicion that someone evading the police took refuge inside dodger stadium by hopping one of the gates and was seen running into the stadium at night. The police went in to find him but were cautious because the suspect could be armed. Instead they released the dogs to try and find him or maybe flush him out. Instead after a few minutes waiting to hear or see a suspect running or being brought down by the dogs they were shocked to see the police dogs come running out of the stadium and were observed to be whimpering and reluctant to enter the stadium when commanded. Eventually the police entered the stadium after a lengthy wait while the stadiums lights were turned on so they could see and no suspect was ever located.

Correction Doug: Fernando Tatis Jr hit the most recent HR out of Dodgers stadium off the Cat man's hanging split on Thursday, September 30, 2021. It was hit 467 ft. I watched it live and was one of the greatest things I've ever seen at the ballpark.

Whoever wrote this Article needs a Raise

2 perfect games dont forget July 28, 1991, Dennis Martínez of the Montreal Expos pitched the 13th perfect game in Major League Baseball history, blanking the Los Angeles Dodgers 2-0 at Dodger Stadium.

Haters always hated the Dodgers lol.. Giants, Padres, Yankees..⚾️

Not sure if its still used but the old netting used as the batters eye in center field was the same netting used in left field when they played at the coliseum while dodger stadium was being built.

Ah, Fleetwood Mac’ Tusk video! Stevie Nicks twirling in a filmy dress! Oh my.

Dodger and Yankee stadium are the two stadiums I want to visit and watch a game in the most

Homes u forgot slick Rick Monday’s flag rescue even he was cub at the time , it’s cool

"Played an umpire worse than Angel Hernandez." Hahaha!!

Dennis martinez threw a perfect game at dodgers stadium

TOO MUCH FUN!!!

Thing about Seags compared to a Turner, he is a presence that puts fear in most pitchers

@dodgersnation do you know when the beach ball thing started at Dodger Stadium? How old is it?

I was there when Mike Piazza hit it out of the stadium against the Rockies!

The Stadium Club and the Polar Bear. The view from those areas.

Great video, but use the "Pip Screen" next time - if I'd been listening to this through headphones... nope. 😱😂 (I love how the Disney connection is hiding in plain sight at the stadium, much like the Mickey Mouse ears located all through the Disney parks!)

The most memorable home run ever hit in the World Series was hot here? Babe Ruth and Kirby Puckett would like a word.

He forgot to mention when the dodgers fans beat that giants fan and left him in a coma
