In completing a sweep of the National League Central champion Milwaukee Brewers, the Los Angeles Dodgers closed out the regular season on a seven-game winning streak and also by taking 15 in a row at Dodger Stadium.

That set a new franchise record for most consecutive victories at Dodger Stadium and overall the longest home winning streak in the modern era (since 1901). Brooklyn won 22 home games in a row during the 1899 season, and had a 15-game winning streak at home the following year.

The Dodgers’ victory on Sunday broke a tie for longest home winning streak in franchise history during the modern era that was initially held by the 1921 Brooklyn club.

L.A. won 13 in a row at home across series against the San Francisco Giants, Colorado Rockies, San Diego Padres, Arizona Diamondbacks and Washington Nationals during the 2009 season. They also had 11-game home winning streaks in 2017 and 2020.

Overall this season, the Dodgers went 58-23 at Dodger Stadium, which was the best home record in baseball and tied a franchise mark. The 2019 club held the record as they surpassed the 57 wins at Chavez Ravine that were accumulated by the 2017 team.

The Dodgers next will look to benefit from their home-field advantage when they host the St. Louis Cardinals in the National League Wild Card Game on Wednesday.

Roberts ‘really proud’ of Dodgers

Despite facing a seemingly never-ending wave of injuries, the Dodgers tied a franchise record with 106 wins.

“For the regular season, I’m really proud of our guys. To go through what we went through and win a lot of ballgames, it was a great regular season,” manager Dave Roberts said.

“Our guys didn’t waver all year. It’s not the path we planned out, but now our focus turns to Wednesday and winning a ballgame.”
