Through the first three seasons of the new decade and century, the Dodgers have steadily improved, but have not yet earned a postseason berth. The 2000 season saw the Dodgers win 86 games with some explosive offense. The Dodgers set a club record for home runs with 211, led by Gary Sheffield who tied Duke Snider 1s single-season club mark of 43 home runs. For the second straight season, Sheffield hit better than .300, with at least 30 home runs, 100 RBI, 100 walks and 100 runs becoming the first Dodger ever to do so twice.
