Zero for Nine
The Dodgers in their long history, have won 100 games or more nine times. In those seasons the have never won a World Championship. Nope, not once. The Most wins by a Dodger team that won it all? 98 in 1955 and 2024. Not that 100-win teams have not made the big dance, the 41 team lost the series to the Yankees. The 105-win 53 team also lost to New York.
Walter Alston's last pennant winning team in 1974 lost to the A's. That was the last 100-win team until Doc's 2017 team won 104 games and then lost the series to the Astro's. Of course, that loss is tainted by the cheating scandal in Houston. Since 2017, The Dodgers have won 100 or more five times and not made it out of the NL playoffs.
