Dodgers Tie Long-Standing MLB Record Amid Historic 3-Peat Charge

The Los Angeles Dodgers have matched an MLB record by securing a spot in the postseason for an unprecedented 14th consecutive season. This feat is comparable to the Atlanta Braves' streak from 1991-2005, who claimed the World Series title just once during that period. The Dodgers' current nine-game lead over the San Diego Padres is far from a fluke, as they have won the NL West a remarkable 13 times in the last 14 years.

Only 2021 stands out as an exception, when the Giants edged them by just one game with 106 wins. Over the past decade, the Dodgers have clinched three World Series titles, all in the 2020s. They secured the championship in thrilling fashion, beating the New York Yankees 5-3 in 2024 and overcoming the Toronto Blue Jays in a hard-fought 7-game series in 2025.

Despite having a less dominant record than the Brewers, who lead the league at 93-57, the Dodgers possess the highest odds to win the World Series at 25.4%, nearly double the Brewers' 13.7%. Injuries have posed challenges this season, with key players such as Shohei Ohtani, Andy Pages, Roki Sasaki and multiple relievers sidelined.

However, the Dodgers' star-studded lineup and depth have kept them competitive and well-positioned for the playoffs. With the postseason secured and a division title to add to their collection, the Dodgers aim to secure a top-two seed to ensure their injured players can rest and return in time for the NLDS.
