Dodger Stadium

"If you’re in L.A. during baseball season, head over to Dodger Stadium and enjoy America’s pastime courtesy of the 2024 World Series champions. Grab a Dodger Dog and a beer, and if you feel like hitting the dancefloor after the game, you can head on down to The Short Stop to keep the party going. —Hannah Jackson"

On the Grid : Dodger Stadium

"The third oldest Major League ballpark in the U.S., Dodger Stadium may not be the most polished of its counterparts, but it maintains a sense of nostalgia that can’t be beat. Even if you’re not a baseball fan, cold beer, Dodger Dogs, and hilltop views of Los Angeles make a winning trifecta for a good time. If $20 parking isn’t your thing, a shuttle runs from Union Station to the stadium before and after every game. Opt for seats in Left Field Pavilion if you like a little extra jest with your baseball games." - Ludlow Kingsley

"Even with the fanfare surrounding Shohei Ohtani’s move from the Angels to the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2023, few predicted the season-altering force he would become; many call it the Ohtani Effect, especially after the team won the 2024 World Series. When Ohtani comes to bat, cheers erupt through Chavez Ravine, with fans clamoring to catch a home run. Television ratings are up for Dodgers games, the number of Japanese tourists flying in to watch the Dodgers play has increased, and, as of March 2025, Major League Baseball jerseys bearing the name “Ohtani” are the most popular on earth. The ballpark has embraced the popularity of the Japan-born star, along with pitchers Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Roki Sasaki, expanding its Japanese concessions to reflect the increased interest. "[Ohtani] has brought new fans," Dodgers CEO Stan Kasten told MLB.com. "He’s changed the mix of demographics at our stadium for games. We have changed some of the merchandise and some of the concession offerings." Below are some of the existing and expanded Japanese options at the ballpark for the 2025 season: Field Level; Reserve Level; Centerfield Plaza; Loge Level; Top Deck; Shochu." - Mona Holmes

"A menu built in partnership with the team that expands and celebrates cultural influences present in the roster and city, with a recent emphasis on Japanese offerings tied to star players. New items include a reimagined katsu sandwich turned into a club with Kewpie mayonnaise and bacon on Texas toast, and an updated Home Run Platter featuring teriyaki chicken, steamed white rice, shishito peppers, vegetable dumplings, and spring rolls. Theme nights further broaden the menu (for example an Armenian heritage night that featured shawarma fries, lahmajoun, and a baklava sundae), reflecting a desire to welcome different cultures while encouraging fans to try new flavors." - Kat Thompson
