Dodgers set a new Guiness World Record for "Largest Attendance at A Baseball Game" at 115,300 for their Saturday exhibition game at the L.A. Coliseum       
4/01/08, 8:56pm
     Watching the game actually gave a glimpse of what it was like for the Dodgers--circa '58-'61-- to play in a stadium built exclusively for football and track & field.  What a contrast to Dodger Stadium!!!!!  The left-field screen at 200 feet (it was actually 259 in '58) where Wally Moon used to hit his famous "Moon Shots" makes Coors Field look like the ultimate pitchers park.
