I seem to recall that before the Stadium, it was named <something> >Gulch, and was renamed Chavez Ravine. > It was never referred to as a "Gulch" unless your geography is way, way off and you somehow erroneously connect it with Gower Gulch and the early days of Hollywood as a producer of low-budget Westerns. The current site of Dodger Stadium has always been--and still is--known as Chavez Ravine. There's a number of sources that can verify this for you if you wish to be accurate: The City of Los Angeles Historical Society, The Los Angeles Conservency as well as the curators at El Pueblo de Los Angeles, a.k.a. Olvera Street.
