For all those that have shared the journey with me, especially those that share my name. Thank you. Love you. This belongs as much to you as it does to me. #WorldChampions #Dodgers #LATogether

@SportsDIYguy That’s awesome

This man is a legend in my household.

"Red Sox font"? Nope, a popular baseball uniform typeface that has ists place in Dodger sartorial history. The first time "Dodgers" appeared on a jersey in 1932, this is what it looked like (The now-familiar script wouldn't appear until 1938):

Happy Japanese Heritage Night to all who celebrate! @ScottAkasaki @StephenNelson

Silent assassin. Randomly, I was at his first game when he was called up to the Angels in 1994. Also a Dodger for a very short time. RIP GA.

[Los Angeles Angels @Angels]

We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Angels Hall of Famer Garret Anderson.

Garret will forever hold a special place in the hearts of Angels fans for his professionalism, class, and loyalty throughout his career and beyond.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to the entire Anderson family.

Had a shirt stint as a Dodger. My second Little League glove was a Mizuno Phil Garner signature edition. RIP Scrap Iron.

Three-time All-Star and longtime MLB manager Phil Garner has died at age 76.

Garner played 16 seasons in MLB and managed 15 more, leading the Astros to the NL pennant in 2005.

RIP Davey 😢

[Los Angeles Dodgers @Dodgers]

The Dodgers mourn the loss of Davey Lopes, who passed away today at age 80. Lopes was a member of the team’s record-setting infield of the 1970s and 1980s and one of the finest basestealers in MLB history. Our condolences go out to his family and friends.

@GameplanChicago That’s the 2024 jersey, when Nike standardized the sizing of front numbers to 4” across MLB. Before that it was 4 5/8.” In 2025, we went to 4.5”

[Ross Yoshida @RYDesignLA]

@studiocrewco No

[Ross Yoshida @RYDesignLA]

It was time…

[Los Angeles Dodgers @Dodgers]

Dodger Blue.

For the first time in history, the Dodgers will be wearing a blue jersey as part of their regular uniform rotation on the road.

[Los Angeles Dodgers @Dodgers]

New threads. 🔥

[Ross Yoshida @RYDesignLA]

@LaInaMinute A great ballpark dog. Marinated in beer and grilled, not steamed.

[Ross Yoshida @RYDesignLA]

@StephenNelson This guy would prefer Harry Caray butchering our names for his enjoyment.

[Ross Yoshida @RYDesignLA]

@CRamirezCalif I think we are there. The name and numbers were too thin on the back. And the old fabric and wordmark size have returned.

[Ross Yoshida @RYDesignLA]

New (old) jerseys looking great! Wordmark split in the right place again and slightly bolder back numbers adding some visual weight.

[Camelback Ranch @camelbackranch]

👑ALL HAIL KING TUCK! First Camelback Ranch appearance for Kyle Tucker!

[Ross Yoshida @RYDesignLA]

So nice, we had to it twice!

Thankful for the team on the field—but even more appreciative of the special team I work with every day. Best in the business.

@CityCynic @DMAC_LA Thanks, man
