ICE denies sending agents to Dodger Stadium as team says they were turned away
The Los Angeles Dodgers said on Thursday that the team had denied U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents entry to the grounds of the ballpark. The team said the agents "requested permission to access the parking lots," but an ICE spokesperson said in an email to Fox News Digital that "ICE was never at Dodgers stadium, and thus never tried to gain access." Law enforcement was spotted outside of Dodger Stadium earlier Thursday that was believed to be ICE. Protestors made their way toward Dodger Stadium shortly after the officials' presence. "Get these fascist f---ing pigs out of our city," an account wrote on X. Another account said that "support" was "needed" and implored "mass mobilization" to Gate E of the ballpark. The team is expected to make an announcement later Thursday that they will assist immigrant communities. The team has been silent about the protests and riots around the city. The team recently found itself in a conundrum with local singer Nessa, who recently performed "The Star-Spangled Banner" in Spanish on Saturday as a form of protest against ICE raids in the city. She said she has since received death threats, but the support from Latin celebrities "triple-confirmed" for her that "what I did was right." However, veteran utilityman Enrique Hernández made a social media post on Saturday night before the game about the protests. "I may not be Born & Raised, but this city adopted me as one of their own," Hernández wrote on Instagram. "I am saddened and infuriated by what's happening in our country and our city. Los Angeles and Dodger fans have welcomed me, supported me and shown me nothing but kindness and love. This is my second home. And I cannot stand to see our community being violated, profiled, abused and ripped apart. "ALL people deserve to be treated with respect, dignity and human rights. #CityOfImmigrants." Other Los Angeles-based professional sports teams have taken a stance, including the NWSL's Angely City F.C., which gave fans "Immigrant City Football Club" T-shirts at their game on Saturday. Players were also seen warming up with the t-shirts on before their match to show support for those protesting. Nezza's Spanish rendition of the anthem came on the day of numerous "No Kings" protests, which were in response to the military parade in Washington, D.C., that coincided with President Donald Trump's birthday, across the country. Trump's birthday was also the 250th birthday celebration of the United States Army. Follow Fox News Digital's sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

Though Ohtani led L.A. to a World Series championship last year, the 30-year-old was kept off the mound and used solely as a designated hitter, with the Dodgers coaching staff preferring not to rush the right-hander back from elbow surgery in September 2023. But the team clearly feels that he is finally ready to throw again. The last time Ohtani pitched was in August 2023 when he was part of the Los Angeles Angels team. In five seasons with the Angels, Ohtani had a 38-19 win-loss record with a 3.01 ERA. Sign up for Variety's Newsletter. For the latest news, follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

Yankees fan left 'in pain' after shocking incident at Dodger Stadium during World Series rematch
A New York Yankees fan attending Friday night's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers says he was hit in the head by falling concrete from Dodgers Stadium. Ricardo Aquino, a Yankees fan from Mexico City, said a piece of concrete fell from above his seat in Section 10 of Dodgers Stadium, which is between home plate and first base in the stands. Social-media photos show a fan in a Yankees jersey holding a piece of concrete, which is about the size of a baseball. Another post shows a photo looking up at one of the support beams of the second deck of Dodger Stadium with a huge chunk missing. The incident reportedly happened during the third inning of the World Series rematch in Los Angeles, per The Athletic. Stadium security and a police officer met with Aquino after the alleged incident, with him also receiving medical attention. Social-media photos show a fan in a Yankees jersey holding a baseball-sized piece of concrete A man sitting up on a stretcher is also seen getting his pulse checked in a social media post. 'He's in some pain, but all it was, was the hit. He's not bleeding, but he's in some pain,' said Alvaro Baeza to the outlet, who translated for Aquino. The Dodgers are aware of the incident and did not comment further on the matter to the outlet. Dodger Stadium is the third-oldest ballpark in Major League Baseball, trailing only Boston's Fenway Park and Chicago's Wrigley Field, housing the Los Angeles squad for most of the time since it moved from Brooklyn. Dodger Stadium opened in 1962 and has been renovated multiple times since. However, parts of the foundation cannot be undone without tearing all of it down. The Dodgers won Friday night's game 8-5 and have blown out the Yankees on Saturday, echoing the results from last year's championship tilt.
