Dodger blue is a rich bright tone of the color azure named for its use in the
uniform of the Los Angeles Dodgers. It is also a web color used in the design
of web pages. The web color is not used in the Dodgers' uniform but rather
resembles the lighter blue used throughout Dodger Stadium. The Brooklyn Dodgers
were never contemporarily referred to as wearing Dodger Blue, although some now
refer to them as representing "True Dodger Blue." The concept of Dodger Blue
originated with Manager Tommy Lasorda, who popularized it. Lasorda managed the
Los Angeles franchise for many years, and was on the player roster of the
Brooklyn Dodgers, though he played for them only very briefly. During his
20-year tenure as manager of the Dodgers, Lasorda piloted them to 8 division
titles, 4 National League pennants, and 2 World Series championships in 1981 and
1988. Lasorda was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1997.
