The weekend series against the Giants will feature Tommy Lasorda’s 90th birthday celebration on Friday as well as annual fan favorites, La Gran Fiesta Viva Los Dodgers presented by Spectrum and Coca-Cola prior to Saturday’s game and Fan Appreciation Day Sunday. Fans are encouraged to arrive early on Friday for pregame festivities that will include birthday tributes to Tommy Lasorda and special guest appearances, and stick around postgame for Friday Night Fireworks presented by Denny’s. Saturday’s La Gran Fiesta presented by Spectrum and Coca-Cola starts at 2:00 p.m. at the Historic 76 Station and will feature live music, interactive games and player/broadcaster autographs, culminating the team’s season-long Viva Los Dodgers celebrations. The team will once again reward the best fans in baseball with Fan Appreciation Day on Sunday, complete with great prizes being awarded throughout the game and postgame Kids Run the Bases presented by New Balance.
