In a public release, Stan Kasten, President and CEO of the Dodgers said,"The Los Angeles Dodgers are proud to stand with and recognize the LGBTQ+ community in Los Angeles and globally. The Dodgers have a history of breaking barriers and we're proud to be a part of another chapter in MLB history as the Dodgers and Giants each wear their team's pride caps on June 11. While our organizations have a long-storied rivalry on the field, we stand together when it comes to equality for all.
Everyone in attendance will be treated to a pregame ceremony featuring a National Anthem performance by Wils, appearances by Billy Bean former-Dodger and the second MLB player to come out as gay and Dale Scott, the first openly gay MLB umpire, amongst others.
