I thought I start this thread with the evolution of the Scoreboard. Recent posts and threads show pictures of the newer scoreboards being put in. How about some pictures of old ones, or at least ones pre-Hi-Def era.... I'll start with this one with pictures of Dodger Stadiums first boards. These pics are off of walteromalley.com

Was Dodger one of the first stadiums to only have a digital clock? Shea in 64 had the Longines (later rebranded Elgin) analog.

Here are 2 close-up screencaps from the Dodgers World Series DVDs. On the Lower pic, the main board had a space in front of the innings for a '1' except the 10th inning. After the 9th inning the ones would light up 10 11 12 . . 18 19 10

Maybe somebody can correct me but I think so since Dodger Stadium was completed in 1962.
