There is no source for this information. It seems to be somebody's guess that it was a pejorative term, etc. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 22:17, 12 May 2017 (UTC)

 * Redirect to History of the Brooklyn Dodgers. It is well known that the team name "Dodgers" originated from "trolley dodgers"; however, there is better sourcing for the origin and evolution of the term on the proposed target article, and I can't see the term ever having independent notability for a stand-alone article. &mdash; KuyaBriBri Talk 13:44, 13 May 2017 (UTC)
