"The Dodgers finished the 1962 season with 2,755,184 in total home attendance. They have surpassed the 2 million mark in 47 consecutive seasons, a streak that dates back to 1973."
"In 2011, then-MLB commissioner Bud Selig announced the league was taking over operations of the Dodgers due to concerns with the team's finances and McCourt's ability to run the franchise."
"The Guggenheim group was headed by principle owner Mark Walter and included team president and CEO Stan Kasten, and part of the ownership team."
On April 20, 1999, the Los Angeles Dodgers achieved a 3-2 victory over the Atlanta Braves, marking a historic attendance milestone at Dodger Stadium. The game attracted 37,717 fans, pushing total attendance past 100 million since the stadium's opening. The Dodgers have maintained a streak of over 2 million fans for 47 consecutive seasons. In 2019, they set a franchise record with nearly 4 million attendees. The date is also significant as it marks MLB's takeover of the Dodgers in 2011 due to financial issues under former owner Frank McCourt.
