Dodgers Journal: Year by Year and Day by Day with the Brooklyn and Los Angeles Dodgers Since 1884 (Paperback)
John Snyder
They've been called the Atlantics, Grays, Bridegrooms, Superbas, the Trolley Dodgers, and, perhaps most fondly, Dem Bums.
They have won the loyalty of fans throughout the country but especially in Brooklyn and Los Angeles, where people bleed Dodger Blue.
We now know them as the Dodgers, and Dodgers Journal is the definitive history of the team, covering every season from 1884 to 2008.
Dodgers Journal is packed with photos and statistics and includes an all-time roster, yearly lineups, all-decade all-star teams, interesting and unusual facts, and unique “season in a sentence” recaps. You’ll find analysis of trades and accounts of myriad events triumphant and tragic, wild and weird.
Brooklyn’s debut in the National League in 1890 began on a positive note as the team won the championship with an 86–43 record.
It was the first of twenty-one National League pennants that the Dodgers would win during the next hundred years.
The only major league team whose location was a borough (rather than a city or state), the Brooklyn Dodgers ended their run in 1957 when Walter O'Malley moved the team to Los Angeles, only ten years after their proudest moment (Jackie Robinson's breaking of the color barrier) and two years after their greatest triumph, beating the hated Yankees in the World Series after five losses. Baseball fans from anywhere will savor the attention to detail that makes this book truly special.
