[inaudible] i guess the decision for you not just to make it into anarticle but to make it into a book, what was the decision like for you ? >> part of it was that i don't think i could have fit everything into an article . i really wanted to tell the story as completely as i could . within reason and within a single volume. i wanted to kind of unspool the fred as long as it could be and when you'rewriting a magazine article , even along magazine article, a feature cover story type article, they really are,

and kind of planning the stadium. peter o'malley kind of granted me that and -- i'm thankful to them for that because i wasn't really aware of what they visionary walter o'malley was in terms of how we conceive baseball as a spectator sport. we think doubt about baseball stadiums have all these different entertainment things in them, and dodger stadium might seem old in the context, but he was the first person to really see baseball as a family-friendly experience. he consulted with walt disney about how to build an ideal fan experience at dodger stadium. that's the kind of level he was thinking on. and getting to dive into his notes and index cards where he wrote that ideas was just so great. it was really helpful in assembling the last part of the book and also as a baseball fan and a person who loves dodger stadium kind of a thrill to see where it came from. >> that's pretty amazing. we only have time for a few more questions. do you see any linkages between the destruction between chavez regime and bunker hill? >>

well i have to say it was a very strange experience walking through the stadium from the local train station usually thousands of pounds especially for such a game as this one as you mentioned by munich the defending champions in town but it was very very quiet usually you'd see fans congregating at the balls on the way to the stadium. i mean it will close to the economy to be that's probably how can i think the clubs will be breathing a sigh of relief because of course if fans rhetoric out of the games are at risk of being abandoned and then the club whose fans offended would then have to potentially forfeit the game and i spoke to some place as well because there are some police here and they said anyone that does try to gather will be arrested for breaking social distancing rules so that's enough of an incentive i think for people to stay away and definitely i'm only on berlin are also well known for their passionate fan base how do you think the empty stadium will affect what happens on the pitch i think you know embodied in more than any other club in the brand is league have th
