Tommy Lasorda started his first full season at the helm of the Dodgers, replacing longtime manager Walter Alston as manager of the team near the end of the previous season. The Dodgers won the National League West by 10 games and defeated the Philadelphia Phillies in four games in the NLCS, then lost to the New York Yankees in the World Series. This edition of the Dodgers featured the first quartet of teammates that hit 30 or more home runs: Steve Garvey with 33, Reggie Smith with 32, and Dusty Baker and Ron Cey, who both hit 30. The Dodgers duplicated this feat again 20 years later in 1997. Offseason December 20, 1976: Ted Sizemore was traded by the Dodgers to the Philadelphia Phillies for Johnny Oates and a player to be named later. The Phillies completed the deal by sending Quincy Hill (minors) to the Dodgers on January 4, 1977.Johnny Oates at Baseball-Reference January 11, 1977: Bill Buckner, Iván DeJesús and Jeff Albert (minors) were traded by the Dodgers to the Chicago Cubs for Rick Monday and Mike Garman.Bill Buckner at Baseball-Reference February 7, 1977: Rick Auerbach was traded by the Dodgers to the New York Mets for Hank Webb and Richard Sander (minors).Rick Auerbach at Baseball-Reference Regular season LAret24.PNG Walter Alston 24 Los Angeles Dodgers 1977 Season standings Record vs. opponents LAD Opening Day lineup +Opening Day starters # Name Position15 Davey Lopes 2B18 Bill Russell SS8 Reggie Smith RF10 Ron Cey 3B6 Steve Garvey 1B16 Rick Monday CF12 Dusty Baker LF7 Steve Yeager C20 Don Sutton P 1977 Opening Day Lineup at Baseball-Reference Notable transactions September 2, 1977: John Hale was claimed off waivers from the Dodgers by the Toronto Blue Jays.John Hale at Baseball-Reference September 2, 1977: Henry Cruz was claimed off waivers from the Dodgers by the Chicago White Sox.Henry Cruz at Baseball-Reference September 8, 1977: Kevin Pasley was sold by the Dodgers to the Seattle Mariners.Kevin Pasley at Baseball-Reference Roster 1977 Los Angeles Dodgers Roster Pitchers 41 Bobby Castillo 44 Al Downing 29 Mike Garman 46 Burt Hooton 49 Charlie Hough 25 Tommy John 35 Dennis Lewallyn 31 Doug Rau 38 Lance Rautzhan 36 Rick Rhoden 27 Elías Sosa 20 Don Sutton 45 Stan Wall 37 Hank Webb Catchers  9 Jerry Grote  5 Johnny Oates  4 Kevin Pasley  7 Steve Yeager Infielders 10 Ron Cey  6 Steve Garvey 21 Ed Goodson 56 Rafael Landestoy 15 Davey Lopes 23 Ted Martínez 22 Boog Powell 18 Bill Russell 44 Ron Washington Outfielders 12 Dusty Baker  3 Glenn Burke 33 Vic Davalillo 43 John Hale 34 Lee Lacy 51 Jeffrey Leonard 16 Rick Monday 11 Manny Mota 17 Joe Simpson  8 Reggie Smith Manager  2 Tommy Lasorda Coaches 26 Red Adams 54 Monty Basgall 58 Mark Cresse 19 Jim Gilliam 28 Preston Gómez Game log Regular season Legend Dodgers win Dodgers loss Postponement Clinched divisionBoldDodgers team member Los Angeles Dodgers 1977 regular season game log: 98–64 (Home: 51–30;

Of those, eight players would eventually play in the Major Leagues. The first round draft pick in the June draft was pitcher Bob Welch from Eastern Michigan University. In 17 years with the Dodgers and Oakland Athletics he started 462 games with a 211–146 record and a 3.47 ERA. He became a two time All-Star, a two time World Series Champion and won the 1990 American League Cy Young Award. The draft also included Mickey Hatcher, who hit .280 in 1130 games, mostly as an outfielder and was a part of two Dodgers World Series champions; outfielder/utility player Ron Roenicke who played eight seasons in the Majors before becoming a coach and manager; and relief pitcher Tom Niedenfuer, who was picked in the 36th round but would play 10 seasons in the Majors and save 97 games. 1977 draft picksJanuary draft 1977 Los Angeles Dodgers Picks in the MLB January Draft-Regular Phase RoundNamePositionSchoolSignedCareer spanHighest level 1Timothy GloydSS Sacramento City CollegeNoDodgers-1979 1979–1981 A2Jessie Daniels2B Louisburg CollegeYes1977–1980 A3Rocky CordovaRHP Sacramento City CollegeYes 1977–1981 A4Daniel ForerLHP Iowa Western Community CollegeNo Dodgers-1981 1981 A5Larry WrightRHP Georgia Perimeter CollegeYes 1977–1980 A6Ronald Grout1B Wingate UniversityNoTwins-1978 1978–1982 AA7Randall MayRHP Yakima Valley Community CollegeNo January secondary phase 1977 Los Angeles Dodgers Picks in the MLB January Draft-Secondary Phase RoundNamePositionSchoolSignedCareer spanHighest level 1Mark WychopenRHP San Jacinto College No June draft 1977 Los Angeles Dodgers Picks in the MLB June Amateur Draft RoundNamePositionSchoolSignedCareer spanHighest level 1Bob WelchRHPEastern Michigan UniversityYes1977–1994MLB2Joe BeckwithRHPAuburn UniversityYes1977–1986MLB3Doug HarrisonRHPCentral Michigan UniversityYes1977–1980AAA4John BushSSOgden High SchoolYes1977–1979A-5Mickey HatcherOFUniversity of OklahomaYes 1977–1991MLB6Mark Elliott1BSilver Lake High SchoolYes1977–1979A7Bobby MitchellOFUniversity of Southern CaliforniaYes 1977–1986 MLB8James NoblesLHPKentucky Wesleyan CollegeYes 1977–1982 AA9Henry NobleSSMcIntosh County AcademyYes 1977 A-10Danny CoulonRHPCollege of the SequoiasYes 1977–1978 A11Jack LittrellRHPOldham County High SchoolYes 1977–1980A12Kenneth LikewiseLHPChaparral High SchoolYes 1977–1978 Rookie13Dennis DelaneyCUniversity of California, Los AngelesNoCardinals-19781978–1984 AA14Jerry BassRHP Georgia Institute of TechnologyYes 1977–1982 AAA15Joseph PurpuraLHPWest Leyden High SchoolYes 1977–1978 A16Jesse BaezCCerritos CollegeYes 1977–1983 AA17Edward ReillyRHPFanwood High SchoolNoAstros-1981 1981–1985 AA18Salvatore Favata2BEdgewood High SchoolNoBrewers-1980 1980–1982A19Richard RossOFSanta Teresa High SchoolNo 20Steven GreenRHPPepperell High SchoolNo 21Mike LednaSSBuffalo Grove High SchoolNoWhite Sox-1981 1981 Rookie22Bobby BrownOFJohn Brown UniversityYes1977–1979 AA23Mitch WebsterOFLarned High SchoolYes 1977–1995 MLB24Victor WoodsOFEl Cerrito High SchoolNoIndians-1979 1979–1982 A25Michael Zouras3BCalifornia State University, Long BeachYes 1977–1981 AAA26Michael HoltRHPEast Forsyth High SchoolYes 1977–1978 A27Mark JakwayOFHemet High SchoolNo 28Douglas HoganRHPMineral Area CollegeYes 1977–1978 A29Melvin Freeman3BEasley High SchoolNoBrewers-1979 1979 A30Tony BollaCCrestmoor High SchoolNoGiants-1979 1979 A31Scott HadleyRHPCentral High SchoolNo 32Ronald KieneRHPStuyvesant High SchoolNo 33Jeffrey JordanRHPOrangeville High SchoolNo 34Ken DuckettOFRichard J.
