The LA Dodgers are playing to Win!
Hired Ned Colletti was responsible for a change in attitude and guided the Dodgers' resurgence in the 2006 season. The Los Angeles Dodgers sent three players to the all-star game and at one point in 2007. The Dodgers had a record of 54-41, which was then the best record in the National League. The Dodgers fell to 60-59, and seven games out of first place in the NL West after a hitting slump. Plus the team had a 79-69 record with three weeks left in the season. And then they the Dodgers trailed the San Diego Padres by 1 1/2 games in the wild card slot.
The Dodgers kicked off their 50th year in Los Angeles by building a float for the 117th annual Tournament of Roses Parade. Plus the team was the first MLB team to attract more than 3 million fans in a season!
