Dodgers kick off homestand tomorrow against the White Sox and Giants
LOS ANGELES – The Dodgers will face off with the Chicago White Sox (June 13 – 15) and the San Francisco Giants (June 16 – 18) starting tomorrow during the sixth homestand of the season, featuring three promotions and two themed nights. Tickets remain available for all six games of the homestand and can be purchased at Dodgers.com/Tickets.
The Chicago White Sox will visit Chavez Ravine for the first time since 2017 for a three-game set beginning tomorrow. Fans will take home a Will Smith bobblehead, presented by Security Benefit, as the homestand begins at 7:10 p.m. and will add another bobblehead to the collection two days later on Thursday as fans will receive a Clayton Kershaw bobblehead, sponsored by Spectrum. On Wednesday, the Dodgers will celebrate Black Heritage Night with special pre-game recognitions and performances. Those who purchased a special ticket pack will take home a unique jersey.
The Dodgers will welcome its National League rivals, the San Francisco Giants, at Dodger Stadium for the first of two bouts this season. The second drone show of the year is set to light up the sky on Friday, June 16 as the organization recognizes Pride Night, presented by Blue Shield of California, with a 7:10 p.m. start. Fans who bought a special ticket pack will take home a Pride Night jersey. On Saturday, the two teams will face off at 6:10 p.m. before a Sunday matinee at 1:10 p.m. as the team celebrates Father’s Day. The first 40,000 fans will take home a reversible bucket hat, sponsored by Security Benefit.
On Black Heritage Night, as part of LADF’s “In This Together” initiative, the 50/50 raffle is dedicated to the Liberty Hill Foundation to support the California Funders for Boys and Men of Color, with a goal to remove systemic barriers and create pathways that enable boys and men of color to achieve their greatest hopes and dreams. Since 2020, over $500,000 has been raised to support this effort. Tonight, the Ellen & Clayton Kershaw Foundation is generously matching up to $50,000. On Pride Night, LADF will once again donate 50% of the proceeds of the 50/50 raffle to The Los Angeles LGBT Center, the world’s largest provider of programs and services for LGBT individuals. The Center’s nearly 800 employees, along with thousands of volunteers and supporters, are an unstoppable force in the fight against bigotry and the struggle to build a better world; a world in which LGBT people thrive as healthy, equal, and complete members of society. In 2022, LADF’s raffle raised over $66,000 on Pride Night. LADF runs and funds proven programs through a social justice lens. For over 10 years, they have been providing vital support and resources for various groups and marginalized Angelenos.
