Lore & Background
The franchise’s first successful period, between 1947 (Jackie Robinson’s first season) through 1966 (Sandy Koufax's final season), featured four championships (1955, 1959, 1963, 1965), ten World Series appearances (1947, 1949, 1952, 1953, 1955, 1959, 1963, 1965, 1966), and only two seasons with 71 or more losses. Their next period of sustained success was from 1973–1988, which was overseen by the end of Walter Alston's managerial career (manager from 1954–1976) and of most of Tommy Lasorda's (1976–1996). During this fifteen-year period, the team won two championships (1981, 1988), five pennants (1974, 1977, 1978, 1981, 1988), and seven National League West division titles. The team's two consecutive 89-loss seasons in 1986 and 1987 were followed by an improbable World Championship in 1988; the 1988 championship was highlighted by Kirk Gibson's walk-off home run in Game 1 of the World Series, which was named the greatest moment in team history by the Los Angeles Times. Currently, the Dodgers have won two World Series titles since 2020 (2020 and 2024), and have made the playoffs every season since 2013.
