Los Angeles Dodgers MemorabiliaThe Dodgers are one of baseball's most storied franchises. While today the Dodgers play in Los Angeles, they called Brooklyn, New York their home until 1958. Founded in the 1860's, the team was originally called the Brooklyn Athletics. In 1884, they changed their name to the Brooklyn Bridegrooms and later the Superbas. However it was the famous Ebbets Field that gave this franchise its final name. During their years at Ebbetts, players often dodged trolley cars to reach the ballpark leading to the nickname "Trolly Dodgers," later shortened to "Dodgers." This moniker became the official name of the team in 1913.

One of the more consistent franchises in baseball, The Dodgers have won a league or division title in all but one decade (1930's) since the 1880s. Only twice in their history have they finished in the basement. With stars such as Roy Campanella, Don Drysdale, Gil Hodges, Sandy Koufax, Pee Wee Reese, Jackie Robinson, Duke Snider, and Maury Wills, the club won ten NL pennants and four World Series championships from 1947 to 1966. During that period, Dodgers' players captured seven NL most valuable player (MVP) awards, six rookie of the year awards, and five Cy Young Awards. The Dodgers also built powerful teams from 1974 to 1988, winning five NL pennants and two World Series titles. Stars of those teams included Ron Cey, Steve Garvey, Kirk Gibson, Davey Lopes, Don Sutton, and Fernando Valenzuela.
