商品簡介

The wildly entertaining narrative of the outrageous 1981 Dodgers from the award-winning author of Dynastic, Fantastic, Bombastic and The Baseball Codes

They Bled Blue is the rollicking yarn of the Los Angeles Dodgers’ crazy 1981 season, a watershed campaign that cemented the team’s place and reputation as fitting thoroughly within the surrounding LA culture. That it culminated in an unlikely World Series win — during a split season demarcated by a strike, no less — is not even the most interesting thing about this team. The Dodgers were led by the garrulous Tommy Lasorda, as much cheerleader as manager, whose office hosted a regular stream of Hollywood royalty. They had Steve Garvey, the first baseman with the movie-star good looks, whose seemingly impenetrable All-American façade was in the first stages of what would soon be total implosion. Garvey was teamed with Ron Cey, Davey Lopes, and Bill Russell in the most durable infield in major league history, with 1981 presenting their final chance to win a championship as a unit. The difference maker was entirely unexpected, a chubby kid, twenty years old and nearly straight out of Mexico, with a wild delivery and a screwball as his flippin’ out pitch. Fernando Valenzuela didn’t speak much English, but his baseball ability broke down cultural barriers and helped fill Dodger Stadium to the brim with a Southern California Latino population that had been thirsting for just such a success story. 

The 1981 season saw the rise of Fernandomania, high drama surrounding the strike, and, as was the culture in Los Angeles at the time, lots of cocaine. In the Halberstam tradition of capturing a season through its unforgettable figures, They Bled Blue is a sprawling, mad tale of excess and exuberance, the likes of which could only have taken place at that time, and in that place.
