1955 World Series: Brooklyn Dodgers Triumph

Historic Victory Ends Yankees' Reign

September 28 - October 4, 1955

In a thrilling seven-game series that captivated baseball fans across the nation, the Brooklyn Dodgers finally broke through their World Series drought by defeating their bitter rivals, the New York Yankees.

After six heartbreaking losses in previous World Series appearances, the Dodgers fought back from a 3-2 deficit to win the final two games in thrilling fashion. In the decisive Game 7, Brooklyn's Johnny Podres pitched a complete-game shutout, while Duke Snider and Gil Hodges provided the offense with a home run each.

The victory was a culmination of years of frustration for the Dodgers and their loyal fans, who had endured decades of dominance by the Yankees. It marked the first time since 1916 that a team other than the Bronx Bombers had won the World Series.
