Horse Racing History

Today we take a brief look at horse racing history. On June 10, 1938 Hollywood Park race track opened in Inglewood, CA. The track remains open today to some of the best horse racing in the country. Twice in its history, the track was forced to close. The first time was during World War 2 and the other time was in the spring of 1949, when the grand stand burned down and the racing card was transferred to nearby Santa Anita race track.

Tomorrow we take a June 11 look at strikeouts.
