The Los Angeles Dodgers are a Major League Baseball franchise that competes in the National League. The Dodgers have won nine World Series, 27 pennants (including one from their days in the American Association), and 23 National League West titles. Their worst season was the 1992 season, when their record was 63 wins and 99 losses. The most wins the Dodgers ever had in a season was 111, which occurred in 2022.
The Dodgers have had multiple periods of sustained excellence. 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), and ten World Series appearances (1947, 1949, 1952, 1953, 1955, 1959, 1963, 1965, 1966).Arlott, John (editor); The Oxford Companion to Sports and Games; p. 125. 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 and 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 three World Series titles since 2020, which includes the franchise's first back-to-back championships in 2024 and 2025, and have made the playoffs every season since 2013.
