That first game in Milwaukee and the number of fans that attended, also caught the attention of one Walter O'Malley. This started the journey of the Dodgers out of Brooklyn.

The Big "O" couldn't stand the fact that LOU PERINI got there first, so he had to take it one step further, which he did.....and WE lost!
