Dodgers' executive Camille Johnston confirmed a widespread report that the club is considering moving a home game to the Coliseum next season as part of its year-long celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Dodgers' move from Brooklyn.
What Johnston didn't say, but what is abundantly clear, is that it would have to be a late-spring exhibition because Major League Baseball would never approve a regular-season game in a stadium that doesn't come close to meeting the league's standard field dimensions.
The Dodgers played at the Coliseum from 1958-61 while Dodger Stadium was under construction.
Because the left-field foul pole was just 250 feet away, a 42-foot screen had to be installed to cut down on cheap home runs.
