The Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation launched a special auction at Dodgers.com/Relief on Wednesday afternoon to support local COVID-19 relief efforts that will aim to uplift significantly impacted Angelenos, including our most vulnerable populations and those on the front lines of this crisis.
The auction runs through April 19 at 5:00 p.m. PT, and features autographed jerseys from the 2020 Dodgers roster, including Mookie Betts, Cody Bellinger, Clayton Kershaw, Walker Buehler, Justin Turner, Corey Seager and more. It also includes game-used Max Muncy and Kiké Hernández jerseys from games in which they homered.
