Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Yankees Dodgers rivalry is one of the most well-known rivalries in Major League Baseball. The two teams have met more times than any other pair of teams from the American and National Leagues, and have met each other in eleven World Series. The initial significance was embodied in the two teams'' proximity in New York City, when the Dodgers initially played in Brooklyn. After the Dodgers moved to Los Angeles in 1958, the rivalry retained its significance as the two teams represented the dominant cities on each coast of the United States, and since the 1980s, the two largest cities in the United States. Although the rivalry''s significance arose from the two teams'' numerous World Series meetings, the Yankees and Dodgers have not met in the World Series since 1981. They would not play each other in a non-exhibition game until 2004, when they played a 3-game interleague series, and have not played each other in the regular season or postseason since. However, they are scheduled to meet for another interleague series in June 2010.
