LGBT Night Out: The Los Angeles Dodgers Versus the Colorado Rockies

The Los Angeles Dodgers announced last week that the team will hold its first LGBT night on Sept. 27. 

LGBT Night Out will feature a celebrity first pitch, a performance of the national anthem by a member of the Gay Men's Chorus of Los Angeles and a fireworks show after the game against our own Colorado Rockies. 

"We welcome all fans to Dodger Stadium throughout each season," Dodgers executive Lon Rosen said in a statement. "We are especially proud to welcome and recognize the LGBT community of Los Angeles, an integral part of the city and of the Dodgers community." Several other MLB teams hold similar events.
