<Tr> <Th> President of Baseball Operations </Th> <Td> Andrew Friedman </Td> </Tr> <P> The Los Angeles Dodgers are an American professional baseball team based in Los Angeles, California . The Dodgers compete in Major League Baseball (MLB) as a member club of the National League (NL) West division . Established in 1883 in Brooklyn, New York, the team moved to Los Angeles before the 1958 season . They played for four seasons at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum before moving to their current home of Dodger Stadium in 1962 . </P> <P> The Dodgers as a franchise have won six World Series titles and 22 National League pennants. 11 NL MVP award winners have played for the Dodgers, winning a total of 13 MVP Awards, Eight Cy Young Award winners have pitched for the Dodgers, winning a total of twelve Cy Young Awards . The team has also produced 18 Rookie of the Year Award winners, twice as many as the next closest team, including four consecutive from 1979 to 1982 and five consecutive from 1992 to 1996 . </P> <P> In the early 20th century, the team, then known as the Robins, won league pennants in 1916 and 1920, losing the World Series both times, first to Boston and then Cleveland . In the 1930s, the team changed its name to the Dodgers, named after the Brooklyn pedestrians who dodged the streetcars in the city . In 1941, the Dodgers captured their third National League pennant, only to lose to the New York Yankees . This marked the onset of the Dodgers--Yankees rivalry, as the Dodgers would face them in their next six World Series appearances . Led by Jackie Robinson, the first black Major League Baseball player of the modern era; and three - time National League Most Valuable Player Roy Campanella, also signed out of the Negro Leagues, the Dodgers captured their first World Series title in 1955 by defeating the Yankees for the first time, a story notably described in the 1972 book The Boys of Summer . </P>
