It's not that bad. TD member Circus Boy observed that the Game Threads didn't give a latecomer any idea what was happening on the field, what with all the merry banter and folderol being posted instead. So in his honor we try to add at least a few posts every game to commemorate the game itself.
I figured he'd adapt, but you're right. LA Coliseum, the Dodgers' first home in LA, would do the trick. 250 to left. http://www.ballparksofbaseball.com/past/images/lamem13954.jpg
