Jack Clark hit a 450-foot home run off Dodger closer Tom Niedenfuer to win game six and the NLCS for the Cardinals. With an open base, Dodger manager Tommy Lasorda was second guessed for not walking Clark, the only big power threat in the Cardinal line-up. Niedenfuer also gave up a walk-off home run to Ozzie Smith in game five contributing to Smith winning the NLCS MVP Award.

Of those, six players would eventually play in the Major Leagues. They received an extra pick in the 2nd round of the June draft as compensation for losing pitcher Burt Hooton as a free agent. The first pick in the June draft was outfielder Chris Gwynn from San Diego State. The brother of Hall of Famer Tony Gwynn, he would play 10 seasons in the Majors (7 of them with the Dodgers), primarily as a pinch hitter/backup outfielder. He hit .261 in 599 Major League games. The draft also included outfielder Mike Devereaux (round 5), who was briefly a starter with the Baltimore Orioles in the early 90s but was primarily a reserve, and relief pitcher John Wetteland (2nd round of the January secondary draft) who saved 330 games in 12 seasons (with the Dodgers, Expos, Yankees and Rangers). 1985 Draft PicksJanuary draft 1985 Los Angeles Dodgers Picks in the MLB January Draft-Regular Phase RoundNamePositionSchoolSignedCareer spanHighest level 1Bradley ZeinertLHP Yes 1985–1987Rookie2John Farley3B San Jacinto CollegeYes1985 Rookie3Greg BrileySS Louisburg CollegeNo Mariners-1986 1986–1997 MLB4Mike KitzLHP College of San MateoNo 5Paul KuzniarRHP Alvin Community CollegeNoIndians-1987 1987–1990 AA6Lester LoganC University of Nebraska at LincolnNo 7Gregory Martin2B Middle Georgia CollegeNo 8Mike Fowler3B Spartanburg Methodist CollegeNo Braves-1987 1987–1989 A9Bruce PowersOF Skyline Junior CollegeNo 10Chris GravesRHP Middle Georgia CollegeNo 11Kevin NelsonRHP Yuba Community CollegeYes 1985–1986 A12Derek KeathleyRHP Yuba Community CollegeNo 13John McEnteeLHP College of MarinNo January secondary phase 1985 Los Angeles Dodgers Picks in the MLB January Draft-Secondary Phase RoundNamePositionSchoolSignedCareer spanHighest level 1Eric Tutt1B Middle Georgia CollegeNo 1985 Rookie2 John WettelandRHP College of San Mateo Yes 1985–2000MLB3Adrian AdkinsC Middle Georgia College NoPirates-1989 1989 Rookie June draft 1985 Los Angeles Dodgers Picks in the MLB June Amateur Draft RoundNamePositionSchoolSignedCareer spanHighest level 1Chris GwynnOFSan Diego State UniversityYes1985–1996MLB2Mike Watters2BUniversity of MichiganYes1985–1988AAA2Jeremy SmithCMorehead State UniversityYes1985–1986A3Pete GeistOFGeorgia Institute of TechnologyYes1985–1987A4Mike PriorOFIllinois State UniversityNo 5Mike DevereauxOFArizona State UniversityYes1985–1998MLB6Walter McConnell3BGeorgia Institute of TechnologyYes1985–1992AAA7Rene GarciaLHPHoover High SchoolYes1985–1987A8Jack SavageRHPUniversity of KentuckyYes 1985–1991 MLB9Walter StullRHPUniversity of California, RiversideYes 1985–1987 A10Frederick FarwellLHPUniversity of ArkansasYes 1985–1988 AAA11Michael FialaRHPPrinceton UniversityYes1985–1986A12Kenneth LambertCUniversity of PortlandYes1985–1987 A13Andy NaworskiRHPUniversity of California, Los AngelesYes1985–1987 A14Michael Batesole3B Oral Roberts UniversityYes1985–1988 AA15William RayRHPUniversity of KentuckyYes 1985–1988 A16Mike HuffOFNorthwestern UniversityYes1985–1996MLB17Bryan SmithLHPSt. Mary's College of CaliforniaYes 1985–1987A18Carl ThomasLHP Calhoun County High SchoolYes 1985–1987 A19Michael Burke1BSt. Xavier UniversityYes1985–1987A20Michael LillyRHPState University of West GeorgiaYes 1985–1987 Rookie21Charles HardwickLHPUniversity of South CarolinaYes 1985–1986 A22Edwin HartLHPPatrick Henry High SchoolYes1985–1986Rookie23Jeffrey HartmanSSMcCaskey High SchoolYes1985–1988 A24Michael WhiteOF Valdosta State UniversityYes 1985–1986A25Paul Moralez1B University of California, RiversideYes 1985–1987A26Douglas AmesLHP Yes 1985–1986A27Robert TuckerC West Virginia UniversityYes 1985–1986A28Eugene AyersSS University of North Carolina at CharlotteYes 1985–1986A29Brett ParkerSS Sul Ross State UniversityYes 1985Rookie30Andrew AnthonyOF Valdosta State UniversityYes 1985–1986A31Jim GarrisonSS Plant City High SchoolYes 1985–1988A32Ronald JacksonC Huston-Tillotson CollegeYes 1985–1986A33Bill Bluhm3B College of the CanyonsYes 1985–1989A June secondary phase 1985 Los Angeles Dodgers Picks in the MLB June Draft-Secondary Phase RoundNamePositionSchoolSignedCareer spanHighest level 1Doug CoxLHP Georgia Perimeter CollegeNo 2Marty NewtonC San Bernardino Valley CollegeYes 1985–1986A-3John McEnteeLHP College of MarinNo References External links 1985 Los Angeles Dodgers uniform Los Angeles Dodgers official web site Baseball-Reference season page Baseball Almanac season page Category:Los Angeles Dodgers seasons Los Angeles Dodgers Category:National League West champion seasons Los Category:1980s in Los Angeles
