their second World Sequence victory in 1959. Within the Sixties and early Nineteen Seventies, he guided the Dodgers to four
extra pennants. Moreover, the Dodger’s pitching staff throughout this era was invincible. The Dodgers defeated
the Yankees within the 1963 World Series, and two years later they bested the Minnesota Twins to take house
their fourth World Series title. Below Manager Walter Alston, the Dodgers gained their final pennant in 1974.
In 1976, Future Hall of Fame manager Tommy Lasorda turned the workforce’s new manager.
