What’s in a Name? How did the Dodgers get their name? If because:

  • Back in the day, anyone from Brooklyn was a “trolley dodger,” due to the street car lines criss-crossing Brooklyn, then CLEAR.
  • The team was known for their ability to avoid getting beaned by the pitcher (still unpunished in the early century), then LUCID.
  • From the scrappy baseball-playing character “Rodger Dodger” by Harper’s Weekly cartoonist Mark Fenderson, then BRIGHT.
