The 1952 Brooklyn Dodgers were a professional baseball team based in Brooklyn, New York. They were a member of the National League (NL) and played their home games at Ebbets Field. The team is notable for its strong roster and its ongoing rivalry with the New York Giants.

In the 1952 season, the Dodgers finished with a regular-season record of 96 wins and 57 losses, winning the National League pennant. This was their fourth pennant in the past seven years, but unfortunately, they lost the World Series to the New York Yankees in seven games.

Some notable players on the 1952 Brooklyn Dodgers included:

Jackie Robinson: The first African American player to break the color barrier in Major League Baseball. He played both infield and outfield positions and was known for his exceptional athleticism and leadership on and off the field.

Duke Snider: An outfielder known as "The Duke of Flatbush," he was one of the most prolific power hitters of his era. Snider was a key contributor to the team's success and a fan favorite.

Roy Campanella: A standout catcher who was a three-time National League MVP during his career. Campanella was known for his defensive skills and his ability to handle the Dodgers' pitching staff.

Pee Wee Reese: The team's captain and shortstop, Reese was known for his solid defense and leadership on the field. He was respected by teammates and opponents alike.

Carl Erskine: A prominent pitcher for the Dodgers, Erskine was known for his curveball and played a significant role in the team's success during this era.

The 1952 season was a continuation of the Dodgers' success during the 1950s, but they faced disappointment in the World Series against the Yankees. The rivalry between the Dodgers and the Yankees was a significant storyline in baseball history, and the 1952 World Series added another chapter to that rivalry.
