They’ll be playing Coldplay songs for Cubs reliever Chris Martin in Dodger Stadium:
The Dodgers have acquired Chris Martin from the Cubs.

It seemed pretty clear the Cubs would trade Martin from the moment they signed him. He’s 36 and on a one-year deal, and likely never intended to be a long-term part of the Cubs future.
This year with the Cubs, Martin has a rather unsightly 4.31 ERA and 1.340 WHIP, though his FIP of 3.02 suggests he’s pitched better than the ERA number.
