Dodgers Hold Annual Hollywood Stars Game

The Los Angeles Dodgers will conduct their annual Hollywood Stars Game following Saturday's game against the Chicago Cubs at Dodger Stadium.

Scheduled participants include Oscar and Grammy winner Jamie Foxx; rapper The Game; actors Alan Thicke and Jaleel White; actress Bella Thorne; JoJo Fletcher and Becca Tilley, contestants on the 2016 season of the ABC dating series "The Bachelor"; Los Angeles Lakers guard D'Angelo Russell and forward Julius Randle; sportscaster Marcellus Wiley; former Ultimate Fighting Championship light heavyweight champion Chuck Liddell; Dodger broadcaster Jerry Hairston Jr.; and Los Angeles Kings centers Trevor Lewis and Tyler Toffoli.

The Dodgers revived the Hollywood Stars Game last year. They had held one from 1958, their first season in Los Angeles, through 2009, except in 1994 when it was canceled because of a strike by the Major League Baseball Players Association.

Past participants have included Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Walter Matthau, Jack Lemmon, Steve Martin, Bob Newhart and Robin Williams.
