Dodger Stadium was basically the vision of Walter O' Malley, owner of the Dodgers, who chose the 300-acre underdeveloped land at Chavez Ravine to build the stadium there in 1957. Designed by the architect Captain Emil Praeger, Dodger Stadium opened on the 10th of April in 1962. Built at a cost of $23 million, the builder behind this huge and magnificent stadium was the Vinell Construction Company, whereas, the owner of the stadium are the Los Angeles Dodgers. This was the only privately financed baseball stadium built, since the Yankee Stadium in 1923. The third privately financed baseball stadium was Pacific Bell Park which opened in 2000. In addition to this, the Dodger Stadium, along with Chicago's Wrigley Field, were the only National League parks that had been built solely for baseball. It had been occupied by The Los Angeles / California Angels from 1962 to 1965, which played their games there and shared the Dodger Stadium, which was then known as Chavez Ravine.

The stadium, by all means is a true and a classic pitcher's park. The surface is of Santa Ana Bermuda grass, added after the 1995 season. Dodger Stadium is the unique existing MLB ballpark that has remained constant in its capacity. Other than seating a large number of spectators, the stadium has the capacity to park 16, 000 cars. One very distinct feature of Dodger Stadium is its wavy roof atop each outfield pavilion. Beer is available in both the pavilions today, whereas, in 1999, strobe lights were also added in this majestic ballpark. The flashing of these strobe lights create a great effect when the Dodgers win or do a home run.

What currently is the third oldest ballpark in Major League Baseball is better known as Dodger Stadium. The current site of this large out-door ballpark is Chavez Ravine, a community in Los Angeles, in the U.S state of California. The stadium can seat up to 56, 000 people and is home to Los Angeles Dodgers Major League Baseball from the very beginning. Along with hosting sports games such as the 1980 MLB All-Star Game, Dodger Stadium has also played host to many famous artists. Entertainers from around the world have performed there, including The Rolling Stones and KISS. More recently, the stadium has hosted both the semi-finals and the finals of the 2009 World Baseball Classic.
