1978 Los Angeles Dodgers Schedule

Baseball Almanac is pleased to present a comprehensive team schedule for the 1978 Los Angeles Dodgers with dates for every game played, opponents faced, a final score, and a cumulative record for the 1978 season.
"Although baseball decided to extend the regular season deeper into October to play 162 games (after the 09-11 disaster), why not just play 154? Baseball has dealt with shortened seasons before. (Bud) Selig spoke about the sanctity of playing 162 games, but baseball played 154 games until 1961. Baseball should have just let the games go and continued with the current schedule." - Joe Morgan on ESPN (September 19, 2001)
