I was 11 years old when my beloved "Bums" walked out on me!! They left Brooklyn at the end of the 1957 season. I knew right then and there that I could never be an LA Dodger fan. From that moment on there could never be anymore history in Brooklyn. My second favorite team was the Yankees so I had no choice but to begin rooting for the only team that represented New York and that I knew would never leave. I've been a Yankee fan ever since. I've never had any interest in being a Mets fan although I rooted for them in the 1969 and 1973 world series. I never liked the 1986 team because I always thought they were nothing be a bunch of show offs.

The Brooklyn Dodgers moved to California in 1958. They played in the Los Angeles Memorial Colesium until Dodger Stadium was completed for the 1962 season.

The team originated in Brooklyn, New York, where it was known as the Brooklyn Dodgers, before moving to Los Angeles before the 1958 season

they moved to LA in 1958. They didn't start playing in Dodger stadium until 1962. Between 58 and 62 they played at the Colesium. For some time the angels played at Dodger stadium until Angel stadium was built.

The western component to america has the excellent communities by ability of share, Hell, the Dallas Cowboys are properly worth better than the Yankees, and the Cowboys lose lots. yet, all and all, i admire the White Sox the main and the l. a. Dodgers 2nd and could consistently be a Cowboys Fan.

The same year I moved from NYC, 1957. It was very sad for a 14 year old.
