The Los Angeles Dodgers, formerly the Brooklyn Dodgers, are a current Major League Baseball (MLB) team in Los Angeles, California.
History[edit]
Former players Mike Scioscia and Darryl Strawberry played for the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant softball team.[1] Former Dodgers great, Sandy Koufax, was asked a question by Homer once in a radio show.[2]
When Homer arrived in India he asked a woman where he was. She told him he was an ignorant American, who had confused India with Indiana, Indiana with Illinois, and the Cubs with the Dodgers.[3]
The Brooklyn Dodgers were on Mr. Burns' wish list.[4]
Former Dodger Kirk Gibson's walkoff home run against former Athletic closer Dennis Eckersley in game one of the 1988 World Series was once seen on television.[5]
Mrs. Krabappel tells the class it is "Old Codger Day" the next day, but Bart brings in Mike Piazza because he thought she said "Old Dodger Day". Edna then asked Slugger if he ever get to second base with a schoolmarm.[6]
