Another interesting fact from Dodger history is that in 1977 (before the steroid & HGH era) they became the first team ever to have 4 guys hit 30 or more HRs in a single season. (Dusty Baker, Ron Cey, Steve Garvey & Reggie Smith)

And allegedly Dusty Baker "invented" the high-five when he became the last of those four to reach 30 home runs, which he did on the last day of the season. He says that teammate Glenn Burke raised his hand up to acknowledge Baker's feat, and Baker instinctively slapped his hand. Et voila, the high-five was born. You might say that, hey, surely at some point before 1977, two people smacked their hands together in celebration. But Dusty says otherwise.

Wasn't sure of the Korean player but tried "Kim" and then "Park" rightfully figuring I had a good chance.

Lol. Apparently 20% of Koreans are named Kim. Add Park and Lee and you're up to 45%.

Other fun things would've been Eric Gagne's saves streak, the Rookie of the Year streak, and question to which the answers are, respectively, Chavez Ravine, Walter Alston, Duke Snider.

I think for Fernando Valenzuela, you should also accept just "Fernando." That's how most Dodgers fans know him...

Since the Cincinnati Bengals came into existence in 1968, Dodger World Series championships have always been followed by Bengals Super Bowls.

1981: Dodgers beat Yankees ... Bengals lose SB XVI to 49ers, 26-21.

1988: Dodgers beat A's ... Bengals lose SB XXIII to 49ers, 20-16.

2020: Dodgers beat Rays ... COVID/Burrow injured ... 2021 Bengals lose SB LVI to Rams, 23-20.

Nomo's Rookie of the Year win was one of five in a row for Dodgers players from 1992-1996: Karros, Piazza, Mondesi, Nomo, Hollandsworth. The only other team to have more than two in a row is...the Dodgers, with four in a row from 1979-1982: Sutcliffe, Howe, Valenzuela, Sax. These fellas can develop players.

Nomo being a Japanese star gives him an advantage. Having Piazza, Mondesi, and Sutcliffe are solid. (Sutcliffe won the Cy Young, but not for the Dodgers.)
