In July 2025, the Los Angeles Dodgerssuffered their worst losing streak since 2017, at seven games. Though the slide was uncharacteristic of the defending World Series champions, it doesn’t get close to joining the worst losing streaks in MLB history.
The longest single-season MLB losing streak of all time was 26 games, by the 1889 Louisville Colonels. In the modern era (since 1900), the 1961 Philadelphia Phillies top the list.
