If you’re wondering what to get your dad for Father’s Day this year, might we suggest an afternoon with the Los Angeles Dodgers?
And this year, it comes with its own gift.
On Father’s Day, June 21, the Boys in Blue are hosting the Baltimore Orioles, and the first 40,000 fans in attendance will get some special Dodgers-themed gear from Uniqlo, the title sponsor of the field.
“Fans will receive one of two UNIQLO designed t-shirts, along with a clear UNIQLO Field at Dodger Stadium tote bag,” the team said on its website.

The shirts are essentially mirror versions of themselves.
One shirt has the classic LA logo where the front pocket would be and a large Dodgers logo on the back, while the other has the Dodgers logo on the front and a large LA on the back.
How did Uniqlo become a Dodgers sponsor?
Uniqlo is now has a “prominent showing throughout the ballpark,” as Katie Woo of The Athletic described it.
“Its name will be used in all references and signage related to Dodger Stadium, including a newly constructed sign in center field,” she said. “Uniqlo will also hold exclusive marketing and promotional opportunities as the organization’s top sponsor.”

That’s due in no small part to the Dodgers’ pursuit of Japanese stars, including Shohei Ohtani, Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Roki Sasaki.

Not only are those players contributing on the field, but they’re helping fund the Los Angeles Dodgers’ dynasty.
Japanese companies saw an opportunity when many of Japan’s citizens followed their national heroes to Major League Baseball, and now, they’re sponsors of the Dodgers.
Will you be at Dodger Stadium on Father’s Day, and if so, which shirt do you want?
