LOS ANGELES and NEW YORK, April 19, 2022 – The Los Angeles Dodgers have selected global sports marketing agency SPORTFIVE to help secure premier worldwide partnerships for the team, it was announced today.

As part of the partnership, SPORTFIVE will look to secure two marquee corporate partner positions for the seven-time World Series champions – the field presenting partner to iconic Dodger Stadium and the first-of-its-kind jersey partnership in Major League Baseball. The agency will leverage its extensive market intelligence, reach, and global sales network to identify and secure ideal partners for the team’s partnership positions, whether domestically or internationally.
