    Postseason Recaps, Line Scores, Stats & Records World Champions 1955 World Champions For the Brooklyn Dodgers, the 1955 World Series was not just a chance to win a championship, but an opportunity to avenge five previous World Series failures at the hands of their chief rivals, the New York Yankees. Even with their ace Don Newcombe on the mound, the Dodgers seemed to be doomed from the start, as three Yankee home runs set back Newcombe and the rest of the team in their opening 6-5 loss. Game 2 had the same result, as New York's southpaw Tommy Byrne held Brooklyn to five hits in a 4-2 victory. With the Series heading back to Brooklyn, Johnny Podres was given the start for Game 3. The Dodger lefty stymied the Yankees' offense over the first seven innings by allowing one run on four hits en route to an 8-3 victory. Podres gave the Dodger faithful a hint as to what lay ahead in the series with his complete-game, six-strikeout performance. Game 4 at Ebbets Field turned out to be an all-out slugfest. After falling behind early, 3-1, the Dodgers used the long ball to knot up the series. Future Hall of Famers Roy Campanella and Duke Snider each homered and Gil Hodges collected three of the club’s 14 hits, including a home run in the 8-5 triumph. Snider's third and fourth home runs of the Series provided the support needed for rookie Roger Craig and the Dodgers took Game 5 by a score of 5-3.

  • My Drift Title: the Greatest Dodgers Written By: Jerry D
    My Drift Title: The Greatest Dodgers Written by: Jerry D. Petersen Date: 10 June 2019 Article Number: 311-2019-9 I grew up as a Brooklyn Dodgers fan. My favorite player was Duke Snider. I remember listening to the baseball games on the radio. When I was a kid, the games were not on television yet, which didn’t matter too much since we didn’t have a television set until I was a teenager. Okay, most of my younger readers probably never heard of the Brooklyn Dodgers. Here is a short history of the Brooklyn and Los Angeles Dodgers: The Brooklyn Dodgers were a Major League baseball team that played in the National League from 1884 until 1957, after which the club moved to Los Angeles, California, where it continues its history as the Los Angeles Dodgers. The team moved west at the same time as its longtime rivals, the New York Giants, also in the National League, relocated to San Francisco in northern California as the San Francisco Giants. The team's name is derived from the reputed skill of Brooklyn residents at evading the city's trolley streetcar network. The Dodgers played in two stadiums in South Brooklyn, each named Washington Park, and at Eastern Park in the neighborhood of Brownsville before moving to Ebbets Field in the neighborhood of Flatbush in 1913. The team is most noted for signing Jackie Robinson in 1947 as the first black player in the modern major leagues. Just in case you are not too swift at geography and was wondering where Brooklyn is located, it is the most populous borough of New York City, with an estimated 2,700,000 residents.

  • Wdam Radio's Greatest Baseball Hits
    THE MUSIC FAN'S SCORECARD TO WDAM RADIO'S GREATEST BASEBALL HITS It's a hit! WDAM Radio's "Greatest Baseball Hits" is the greatest roster of songs about baseball of ever assembled on one team of MP3 files! The WDAM Sports Department has scouted our famous Groove Yard (one of the largest collections of recorded music this side...or any side...of Cooperstown) to find the most major and minor league melodies you could ever imagine – from "America's Greatest Imaginary Station." In addition to these diamond discs and all-star anthems, our lineup also includes memorable play-by-play moments, just as you might have heard them on the radio. And in between innings, we pinch hit some selected baseball movie themes. You'll need a scorecard to truly enjoy this collection, so we have provided one, along with important stats about the songs, on the pages that follow.” These stats include the year, and for those recordings that actually made Billboard magazine's pop music charts, the highest position reached is designated by "#." Many of these selections are particularly rare (and they are labeled as such), so you won't find them at your favorite music source or sports store. Obviously, WDAM Radio's "Greatest Baseball Hits" is in a league of its own. All of us at the station hope you'll have as much fun with this collection as we did assembling it! Play ball!
