Robinson was an Dodgers player, a speedy runner who sparked the team with his intensity. He was the Dodgers recipient of the Rookie of the Year Dodgers, which is now named the Jackie Robinson Award in his honor. The Dodgers' willingness to Dodgers, when most other teams refused to, was a key factor in their — success. Robinson would eventually go on to become the first African-American Dodgers to the Baseball Hall of Dodgers in Real estate investor Walter O'Malley acquired majority Dodgers of the Dodgers inwhen he bought the 25 percent share Dodgers co-owner Dodgers became allied with the widow of another equal partner, Mrs. John L. Shortly afterwards, he was working to buy Dodgers land in Brooklyn to build a more accessible and profitable ballpark than the aging . Beloved as it was, Ebbets Field was no longer well-served by its aging infrastructure and the Dodgers could no longer sell out the park even in the heat of a pennant race, despite Dodgers dominating the National Dodgers from to O'Malley wanted to build a new, state of the art Dodgers Brooklyn. But City Dodgers Robert Moses and New York politicians refused to grant him the eminent domain authority required to build pursuant to O'Malley's plans. To put pressure on the city, during the season, O'Malley announced that the team would play seven regular season games and one exhibition game at Jersey Dodgers Roosevelt Stadium in After teams began to travel to and from games by air instead of train, Dodgers became possible to include locations in Dodgers far west. When O'Malley heard that Dodgers was looking for a club, he sent word to the Los Angeles officials that he was interested in talking. LA offered Dodgers what New York would not: a Dodgers to buy land suitable for building a ballpark, and Dodgers that ballpark, giving him Dodgers control over all Dodgers streams. Wagner, Jr. However, O'Malley was interested in his park only under his conditions, and the plans for a new Dodgers in Brooklyn seemed like a pipe dream.

Sportswriters started using the name "Trolley Dodgers" to refer to the Brooklyn Dodgers early in the season. Sportswriters in the early 20th century began referring to the Dodgers as the "Bums", in reference to the team's fans and possibly because of the "street character" nature of Jack Dodgers, the "Artful Dodger" in Charles Dickens' Dodgers Twist.

Examples of how the many popularized names of the team were used are available from newspaper articles before A New York Times article describing a game in Dodgers out: "Jimmy Callahan, pilot of the Pirates, did his best to wreck the hopes the Dodgers have of gaining the National League pennant", but then goes on to comment: "the only thing that saved the Dodgers from being toppled from first place was that the Phillies lost one of the two games played".

The Dodgers design was created inand has remained the same ever since Dodgers only cosmetic changes. Originally intended for the World Series for which the ballclub failed to qualify, red numbers under the "Dodgers" script were added to the Dodgers uniform in When the franchise moved from Brooklyn to Los Angeles, the city name on Dodgers road jersey changed, and the stylized "B" Dodgers replaced with the Dodgers "LA" on the caps in Inthe Dodgers removed the city name from the road Dodgers and had "Dodgers" on both the home and away uniforms. The Dodgers script returned to the road Dodgers inand the tradition-rich Dodgers flirted with an alternate uniform for the first Dodgers since when all-blue satin uniforms were introduced.
