Both as an organization and with players acting individually, the Los Angeles Dodgers have long been active in the community and in tune with issues that extend beyond baseball.
That was evident last August when the Dodgers supported Mookie Betts in boycotting a game against the San Francisco Giants. They were among the MLB teams to follow in the footsteps of the Milwaukee Bucks, who protested a playoff game in response to the Jacob Blake shooting.
That was followed shortly after by the forming of the Players Alliance, which Dodgers teammates Mookie Betts and David Price are part of.
