“Chasing History: Can the Dodgers Tie the All-Time Wins Record with Orel Hershiser’s Blessing?”
If you believe the hype, these Dodgers are out to make a liar out of Lasorda.
Under Lasorda’s axiom, no team wins more than two-thirds of its games. For the Dodgers, that would be 108 games.
“117 would be a nice number,” former Dodgers pitcher and current broadcaster Orel Hershiser said. “Set the record.”
The record indeed is 116, set by the Chicago Cubs in 1906 and tied by the Seattle Mariners in 2001.

“There’s just a lot of excitement,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said, “probably more than I can ever recall with the Dodger fan base.”
