The 2005 Los Angeles Dodgers season was the 116th season for the Los Angeles Dodgers franchise in Major League Baseball (MLB), their 48th season in Los Angeles, California, and their 43rd season playing their home games at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles California.
The Dodgers suffered from a rash of injuries to key players such as closer Éric Gagné, shortstop César Izturis and outfielder J. D. Drew and fell to their second worst record in Los Angeles history, finishing in fourth place in the National League West. After the season, manager Jim Tracy and General Manager Paul DePodesta were both fired and the team was torn apart. This was also the last season to be broadcast on KCOP (13).
