The Los Angeles
Dodgers 2008 Spring Training exhibition season
marks the Dodgers' 61st year at Dodgertown and the 56th season of play at
Holman Stadium. The schedule is likely to cover two countries, three states
and begins with their home opener on Thursday, February 28 against the
Atlanta Braves at Holman Stadium in Vero Beach, FL.
The team is tentatively scheduled
to play six Cactus League games in Arizona from March 20-25 and is currently
under consideration by Major League Baseball to take part in a two-game
series in Beijing, China.
During Grapefruit League
competition, the Dodgers will play 10 games at Holman Stadium including a
home game on Sunday, March 9 against the World Champion Boston Red Sox.
Other popular opponents to visit Dodgertown are the New York Mets (March 2)
and St. Louis Cardinals (March 7 and 14).
In the team's first-ever spring
slate in Arizona, the Dodgers are expected to work out of Oakland's Phoenix
Municipal Stadium and will host the Chicago White Sox on March 20. The two
teams are currently building a state-of-the-art Spring Training facility in
Glendale, Arizona. Los Angeles will travel to Tucson, AZ to face the
defending National League Champion Colorado Rockies on March 23.
The Dodgers will face the Angels
twice during 2008 Spring Training - on March 22 in Phoenix and on March 27
at Angel Stadium in Anaheim. |
The Dodgers will face
at least 14 different teams during Spring Training, including
five meetings with the Red Sox. In addition to the March 9 game
at Holman Stadium, the Dodgers will travel to Fort Myers on
March 6. The two teams will close out the exhibition season with
a three-game series in Los Angeles from March 28-30, with the
first and last game taking place at Dodger Stadium and the
middle contest, Saturday March 29, to be held at the Los Angeles
Memorial Coliseum which was home to the Dodgers when they first
moved to Los Angeles from 1958-61.
