by Ron Cervenka The Dodgers will open their second homestand of the season tonight, and will take on the Oakland Athletics (April 10-11) and Arizona Diamondbacks (April 13-15) for five games that include great promotions, fireworks and Sunday’s Jackie Robinson Day festivities.
The Dodgers will kick off the homestand by hosting the Athletics in Los Angeles for the first time since 2015 in their first Interleague match-up of the season Tuesday and Wednesday. The team will have promotions during both games of the series, with the first 40,000 ticketed fans in attendance receiving the first installment of the 60th Anniversary Collector’s Card Set presented by 76 on Tuesday and a hooded sweatshirt presented by Security Benefit Wednesday.
The D-backs series will have something for everyone with Friday Night Fireworks presented by Denny’s, Pups at the Park on Saturday presented by AvoDerm Natural and Nylabone (sold out, more information at Dodgers.com/Pups) and Jackie Robinson Day festivities on Sunday, including a Jackie Robinson jersey giveaway presented by Bank of America. Sunday’s pregame ceremonies will include current and former Jackie Robinson Foundation scholars, while students from Robinson’s high school, John Muir High School, will attend the game as part of the club’s Kids 4 Dodgers Baseball initiative and students from Robinson’s elementary school, Cleveland Elementary School in Pasadena, will participate in Kids Take the Field presented by 99 Cents Only Stores.
