When was the last time the LA Dodgers won the World Series?

Answer 1

1988 4-1 against the Oakland A's.

Answer 2

The last time the L.A. Dodgers won the World Series was in 1988, when they defeated the Oakland A's 4 games to 1. Orel Hershiser pitched a shutout in game 2 (and had 2 or 3 base hits himself!), and won the finale 5-2. Mickey Hatcher had 2 big home runs in the Series, Mike Davis had a big one in game 5, Jay Howell saved game 4 after having been removed from game 3 for having pine tar on his glove - but of course the thing most people remember is Kirk Gibson's 2-out 2-run home run in the bottom of the ninth in game 1 that gave the Dodgers a 5-4 victory.
Prior to that, the L.A. Dodgers won Series in 1981, 1965, 1963, and 1959, while losing Series in 1978, 1977, 1974, and 1966.

Answer 3

The Dodgers won the 1988 World Series in a huge upset over the Oakland A's. That was the Series where Kirk Gibson came off the bench to hit the game winning home run. The A's had a great lineup and pitching staff at the time with players like Jose Canseco, Ricky Henderson, Dave Stewart, and Dennis Eckersley. The Dodgers had Orel Hershiser, Steve Sax, Pedro Guererro and Kirk Gibson.

Answer 4

Answer 6

I would have to say Orel Hershiser. He was an excellent pitcher. Even though he's not in the Hall of Fame he's put up some amazing numbers. In 1988 he won the NL Cy Young Award, NLCS MVP, World Series MVP, and a Gold Glove; finishing the year with 23 wins and 1 loss. Not to mention an ALCS MVP in 1995. Being 41 when he retired is an honorable mention too, because lets face it not too many pitchers still have the stuff to make it at that age.
