Mover and Shaker

Walter O'Malley, the Dodgers, and Baseball's Westward Expansion

Andy McCue

Biography & Autobiography / Sports

One of the most influential and controversial team owners in professional sports history, Walter OêMalley (1903_79) is best rememberedãand still reviled by manyãfor moving the Dodgers from Brooklyn to Los Angeles. Yet much of the OêMalley story leading up to the Dodgersê move is unknown or created from myth, and there is substantially more to the man. When he entered the public eye, the self-constructed family background and early life he presented was gilded. Later his personal story was distorted by some New York sportswriters, who hated him for moving the Dodgers.¾¾
¾In Mover and Shaker Andy McCue presents for the first time an objective, complete, and nuanced account of OêMalleyês life. He also departs from the overly sentimentalized accounts of OêMalley as either villain or angel and reveals him first and foremost as a rational, hardheaded businessman, who was a major force in baseball for three decades and whose management and marketing practices radically changed the shape of the game.
