List of Los Angeles Dodgers seasons

The Los Angeles Dodgers are the second most successful franchise in the National League, the third-most successful, and the second-most wealthy in Major League Baseball after the New York Yankees.^[1] The franchise was formerly based in Brooklyn and known originally as the "Grays" or "Trolley Dodgers" after the trams which supporters had to avoid to enter games.^[2] Later it became known successively as the "Bridegrooms", "Superbas", "Dodgers" and "Robins"; the present "Dodgers" was firmly established in 1932.

The franchise has won eight World Series, twenty-five pennants (including one from their days in the American Association), and won the their division twenty times.^[3] Like the Yankees and Cardinals, the Dodgers have not lost 100 games in a season since World War I, with their worst record being in 1992 with 63 wins and 99 losses. The following year, the Dodgers finished at .500 for the only time in 141 seasons. The most wins the Dodgers ever had in a season was 111, which they did in 2022.

The Dodgers have multiple periods of sustained excellence throughout their history. 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.^[2] Their other 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 won the National League West division seven times. The two consecutive 89-loss seasons in 1986 and 1987 was followed by an improbable World Championship in 1988, highlighted by Kirk Gibson's walk-off homerun in Game 1 of the World Series, which was voted by the Los Angeles Times as the greatest moment in team history.^[4][5] Currently, the Dodgers are in a stretch where they have won two World Series titles (2020, 2024), four National League pennants (2017, 2018, 2020, 2024), while reaching the postseason twelve straight seasons and winning eleven National League West titles. This stretch coincided when Guggenheim Partners bought the team shortly before the 2012 season for $2.15 billion, with most of the success happening under manager Dave Roberts (2016-present) and president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman (2015-present).

Since moving to Los Angeles, the Dodgers played for four seasons at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum before moving to their current home of Dodger Stadium in 1962.^[6] In Brooklyn, they played predominantly at Washington Park (1898–1912) and historic Ebbets Field (1913–1957).
