Pregame coverage also begins at 5:30 p.m. on AM 570 LA Sports with a 90-minute pregame show leading into its game coverage. Today's game can also be heard live on KTNQ 1020 AM (Spanish) and Radio Korea 1540 AM (Korean).

"Based on the health circumstances created by the COVID-19 pandemic along with governmental directives prohibiting large gatherings, Dodger Stadium will be unable to host fans at the start of the season," said the team in a press release. "Fans looking to have a presence at Dodger Stadium can still purchase a Fan Cutout, with net proceeds benefitting the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation."
