 PROFILE
Taking Horace Greeley's advice to go west literally, the Los Angeles Dodgers rocked the baseball world after the 1957 season when the team moved from its proud Brooklyn home (where it was founded in 1884) and made baseball a coast-to-coast sport. One of the game's most successful franchises (and the first to break major league baseball's color barrier with the signing of Jackie Robinson), the Dodgers have won six World Series championships and 21 National League titles. Baseball's era of family ownership came to an end in 1998 when Peter O'Malley sold the Dodgers to billionaire Rupert Murdoch's Fox Group for more than $350 million; also included in the deal was Dodger Stadium and 300 downtown Los Angeles acres.
