The Los Angeles Angels will conduct a postgame fireworks show and mark Memorial Day in several additional ways before and during Monday night’s game against the Detroit Tigers at Angel Stadium.
A pregame ceremony will honor Welcome Back Veterans, a nonprofit organization which provides post-traumatic stress disorder and traumatic brain injury treatment to veterans and their families.
A veteran will be saluted at the top of the third inning.
The Angels will join the rest of Major League Baseball in wearing special matching jerseys and caps. The Angels will wear their home white jerseys with the lettering on the chest and numbers in a new woodland camouflage design licensed by the U.S. Marine Corps. Their caps will have the Angels logo in a woodland camouflage design.
Major League Baseball will donate its licensed uniform royalties from the sale of the Memorial Day apparel from the 29 U.S.-based teams to Welcome Back Veterans and from the sale of Toronto Blue Jays Memorial Day apparel to the Canadian Forces Morale and Welfare Services’ “Support Our Troops Fund.”
