The 1944 Brooklyn Dodgers saw a constant roster turnover as players left for service in World War II. The team finished the season in seventh place in the National League.
The 1935 Brooklyn Dodgers finished the season in fifth place, with their third straight losing season.
The 1922 Brooklyn Robins struggled all season, finishing in sixth place.
Staff ace Burleigh Grimes won 22 games, but the 1921 Brooklyn Robins fell into fifth place.
With World War I looming over the season, the 1917 Brooklyn Robins fell into seventh place.
The 1912 Brooklyn Trolley Dodgers finished in seventh place with a 65–76 record.
With the 1911 season, the Superbas changed the team name to the Brooklyn Trolley Dodgers. However, the team still struggled, finishing in seventh place.
The 1909 Brooklyn Superbas handed the manager's job over to outfielder Harry Lumley. However, the team finished in sixth place again and Lumley's playing stats took a tumble as he tried to do both jobs. He was replaced as manager after the season and traded as a player halfway through the next season.
The 1908 Brooklyn Superbas suffered through another poor season, finishing in seventh place. After the season, manager Patsy Donovan was fired. The club set a Major League record which still stands, for the fewest doubles by a team in a season, with only 110. The Superbas hit only .213 as a team, second lowest in the modern era after the 1910 Chicago White Sox. No regulars hit .250, Tim Jordan led the team with a .247 batting average.
The 1907 Brooklyn Superbas finished in fifth place, with another losing season.
The 1906 Brooklyn Superbas saw Patsy Donovan take over as the team's manager. However, another poor season led to a fifth-place finish.
The 1905 Brooklyn Superbas fell to last place with a franchise-worst 48–104 record, costing manager Ned Hanlon his job.
The 1904 Brooklyn Superbas finished in sixth place with a 65–97 record.
The 1903 Brooklyn Superbas season was a season in Major League Baseball. The Superbas began their slide from contention in the National League by finishing in fifth place.
The 1902 Brooklyn Superbas finished in a distant second place in the National League, 27.5 games behind the Pittsburgh Pirates.
The 1901 Brooklyn Superbas lost several players to the newly official major league, the American League, and fell to third place.
The 1900 Brooklyn Superbas captured their second consecutive National League championship by four and a half games. The Baltimore Orioles, which had been owned by the same group, folded after the 1899 season when such arrangements were outlawed, and a number of the Orioles' players, including star pitcher Joe McGinnity, were reassigned to the Superbas.
The 1899 Brooklyn Superbas season was the 16th season of the current-day Dodgers franchise and the ninth season in the National League. The team won the National League pennant with a record of 101–47, 8 games ahead of the Boston Beaneaters, after finishing tenth in 1898.
The 1900 Pittsburgh Pirates season was the 19th season of the Pittsburgh Pirates franchise. The Pirates finished second in the National League with a record of 79–60.
The 1909 Chicago Cubs season was the 38th season of the Chicago Cubs franchise, the 34th in the National League and the 17th at West Side Park. The Cubs won 104 games but finished second in the National League, 6½ games behind the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Cubs had won the pennant the previous three years and would win it again in 1910. Of their 104 victories, 97 were wins for a Cubs starting pitcher; this was the most wins in a season by the starting staff of any major league team from 1908 to the present day. The 104 wins was the most by any team in Major League Baseball history by a team that failed to finish first—a record that would be unbroken for more than a century. The record was equaled by the 1942 Brooklyn Dodgers and eventually broken by the 2021 Dodgers, who won 106 games but finished a game behind the San Francisco Giants in the NL West.
