- The Dodgers have made 22 World Series appearances.
- Los Angeles has won the Fall Classic on eight occasions.
- The Dodgers have faced the Yankees in the World Series on 12 occasions.
The Los Angeles Dodgers are one of MLB’s marquee franchises. Founded in 1883 in Brooklyn, the team went by various different names before becoming the Brooklyn Robins in 1914.
They remained the Robins until 1931 when they became the Brooklyn Dodgers. In 1958, they swapped Brooklyn for Los Angeles but retained the Dodgers name. Many of the sport’s biggest stars, from Jackie Robinson to Mookie Betts, have worn the iconic Dodger uniform.
How Many World Series Have the Dodgers Won?
The Dodgers have won eight World Series.
Four of the Dodgers’ World Series titles came between 1955 and 1965. They did not win a World Series from 1988 to 2020 and lost their first seven Fall Classic appearances.
Five franchises have won more titles than the Dodgers, but the New York Yankees are the only team to appear in the World Series on more occasions.
When Was the Last Time the Dodgers Won the World Series?
The Dodgers last won the World Series in 2024, defeating the New York Yankees in five games.
Perennial favourites in World Series odds throughout most of the 2010s and the first half of the 2020s, the Dodgers lost the Fall Classic in 2017 and 2018. They also reached the NLCS in 2016 and 2021.
Despite the online sports betting markets often giving the Dodgers short baseball playoff odds to win it all, they’ve only won two World Series since 1988.
