STORY: The Dodgers, who have the NL’s second-best winning percentage (.605) behind only St. Louis (28-16, .636), welcome in the Atlanta Braves for the opener of a three-game series as they continue their six-contest homestand (2-1). Los Angeles has a Major League- best .760 home winning percentage this year (19-6) and is unbeaten in its last 12 home series (11-0-1), the longest active streak in the Majors, dating to 2014. Following this series, the Dodgers hit the road for seven games against the Cardinals (3) and Rockies (4). The first 40,000 fans in attendance at tonight’s game will receive a first-of-its-kind Tommy Lasorda Garden Gnome, presented by Chef Merito Seasonings. NEVER FORGET: Today, in honor of those who perished while serving our great country, the Dodgers and Major League Baseball will take part in the National Moment of Remembrance, a program MLB has been involved with since 1997, and consisting of a moment of silence at exactly 3:00 p.m. PT. The Dodgers and all Major League teams will wear specially designed caps and jerseys for tonight’s game. On the jerseys, the Dodgers’ script will be camouflaged in color and the bills of each cap will also be camouflaged. All of MLB’s net proceeds from the sale of these caps and jerseys will be donated to the Welcome Back Veterans program, which provides grants to university hospitals throughout the country to treat veterans suffering from PTSD and traumatic brain injury. MLB has committed $30 million to Welcome Back Veterans (www.welcomebackveterans.org) since its inception in 2008. Memorial Day pre-game ceremonies will include a flyover by three heritage planes from the Palm Springs Air Museum and a U.S. Army color guard. Five representatives from each military branch of service will throw the ceremonial first pitch and Tuskegee Airman 95-year-old Lieutenant Colonel Robert Friend will say “It’s time for Dodger baseball!” In addition, eight youngsters from military families will partake in Kids Take the Field and the National Anthem will be performed by U.S. Army National Guard Sergeant Vicki Goulding, former U.S. Army Sergeant Victor Hurtado and Lisa Pratt, Operation Rising Star winner and military spouse.

Since May 12, the 2007 MVP is batting .295 (13-for-44) while reaching base safely in nine of 12 contests. Rollins is closing in on 1000 career at- bats against Atlanta, and has some of the most prolific totals against the Braves in the franchise’s 50-years in Atlanta: RollinsCareer Totals vs. Braves (ranks vs. franchise since 1966) At-Bats 989 2 nd (P.Rose, 1,322) Runs 133 4 th (D.Concepcion 3 rd w/137) Hits 266 5 th (D.Concepcion 4 th w/274) Doubles 69 2 nd (P.Rose 76) Triples 12 t-2 nd (D.Parker 1 st w/13) Total Bases 416 3 rd (T.Gwynn 2 nd w/430) SOURCE: STATS, LLC NO JOSHING AROUND: One year ago today, Dodger starter Josh Beckett twirled the 21 st no-hitter in Dodger franchise history, the 11 th in L.A. Dodger history and first since Hideo Nomo’s in 1996. It was Beckett’s first no-hitter, as he joined Randy Johnson, Dave Stewart, Jack Morris, Bret Saberhagen, Bob Gibson, Sandy Koufax, Lew Burdette and Don Larsen as the only pitchers in MLB history to be selected World Series MVP and throw a no-hitter. The right-hander tossed a career-high 128 pitches, walked three and became the oldest pitcher (34 years, 10 days) to fire a no-hitter since Randy Johnson hurled his perfect game on May 18, 2004 at 40 years and 251 days old. STILL SEARCHING: Adrian Gonzalez ranks second in the Major Leagues among left-handed hitters in both slugging percentage (.632) and OPS (1.051), trailing Washington’s Bryce Harper in those categories. The four-time All-Star enters tonight’s game just two RBI shy of 1,000 for his career (998) and would become just the 12 th active player to reach that milestone. He has been stuck in an eight-game RBI drought his longest since coming to Los Angeles. The last eight- game RBI drought for Gonzalez occurred with the Red Sox from Aug. 9-18, 2011 (nine games) SOURCE: STATS, LLC SHOWING SIGNS: Yesterday, the Dodgers scored at least three runs for the first time since plating six on May 15 vs. Colorado, but still lead the National League in home runs (57), on-base percentage (.338) and walks. In addition, Los Angeles leads the Majors Leagues in slugging percentage (.447) and OPS (.751). ONE OF THOSE DAYS: Yesterday, the Dodgers allowed a season- high 11 runs after allowing just 11 runs total in their previous six games. Los Angeles still ranks third in the National League with a 3.34 ERA and holds the second best ERA among NL relievers at 2.53. Tonight, the Dodgers send left-hander Brett Anderson to the mound and this will be his first-career start against the Braves. After posting a 5.49 ERA in April, Anderson is 1-1 with a 1.99 ERA (5 ER/22.2 IP) in four starts this month. The Texas native has posted a 4.00 strikeout-to-walk ratio in his four May starts (20 K/5 BB) and went a season-high 6.1 innings in his last outing at San Francisco. Anderson’s ERA at home is 3.00 (7 ER/21.0 IP) as opposed to 4.22 on the road (10 ER/21.1 IP). CONTRAST IN STYLES: According to STATS, LLC, the Dodgers have accounted for 45.6% of their runs via the longball, which is the third-highest percentage in baseball. Home runs have accounted for just 21.8% of the Braves’ runs, the lowest mark in the Majors. Highlighting this difference are two players: Dodger center fielder Joc Pederson and Atlanta outfielder Nick Markakis. Markakis’ 49 hits are the fourth-most in the big leagues for a player with no homers, while Pederson has homered once every 11.58 at-bats, the fourth-highest rate among MLB qualifiers. SIMPLY DOMINANT: Kenley Jansen struck out one in another 1- 2-3 ninth inning Saturday night as he picked up his third save in his fourth appearance since being reinstated from the disabled list on May 15. It was Jansen’s 13 th consecutive scoreless appearance (13.0 IP) dating to Sept. 5, 2014, with the right-hander going a perfect 8-for-8 in save opportunities and limiting opponents to a .093 batting average (4- for-43) with 19 strikeouts and a 0.54 WHIP in that span. In 4.0 innings this year, Carlos Gonzalez is the only batter to reach base off Jansen, doing so on a wild pitch after striking out. Jansen has eight strikeouts and has yet to allow a hit or issue a walk in four appearances. Jansen’s career-long scoreless streak was a 19.0-inning run in 17 appearances from June 18-Aug. 30, 2011.

Atlanta Braves for the opener of a three-game series as they continue

their six-contest homestand (2-1). Los Angeles has a Major League-

best .760 home winning percentage this year (19-6) and is unbeaten in

its last 12 home series (11-0-1), the longest active streak in the Majors,

dating to 2014. Following this series, the Dodgers hit the road for

seven games against the Cardinals (3) and Rockies (4).

The first 40,000 fans in attendance at tonight’s game will

receive a first-of-its-kind Tommy Lasorda Garden Gnome,

will take part in the National Moment of Remembrance, a program

MLB has been involved with since 1997, and consisting of a moment

of silence at exactly 3:00 p.m. PT.

The Dodgers and all Major League teams will wear specially

designed caps and jerseys for tonight’s game. On the jerseys,

the Dodgers’ script will be camouflaged in color and the bills

of each cap will also be camouflaged. All of MLB’s net

provides grants to university hospitals throughout the

country to treat veterans suffering from PTSD and traumatic

brain injury. MLB has committed $30 million to Welcome

Back Veterans (www.welcomebackveterans.org) since its

Memorial Day pre-game ceremonies will include a flyover

by three heritage planes from the Palm Springs Air Museum

and a U.S. Army color guard. Five representatives from each

military branch of service will throw the ceremonial first

pitch and Tuskegee Airman 95-year-old Lieutenant Colonel

Robert Friend will say “It’s time for Dodger baseball!” In

NO JOSHING AROUND: One year ago today, Dodger starter Josh

Beckett twirled the 21st no-hitter in Dodger franchise history, the 11

th

in L.A. Dodger history and first since Hideo Nomo’s in 1996. It was

Beckett’s first no-hitter, as he joined Randy Johnson, Dave Stewart, Jack

Morris, Bret Saberhagen, Bob Gibson, Sandy Koufax, Lew Burdette and

Don Larsen as the only pitchers in MLB history to be selected World

Series MVP and throw a no-hitter. The right-hander tossed a career-high

128 pitches, walked three and became the oldest pitcher (34 years, 10

days) to fire a no-hitter since Randy Johnson hurled his perfect game on

May 18, 2004 at 40 years and 251 days old.

STILL SEARCHING: Adrian Gonzalez ranks second in the Major

Leagues among left-handed hitters in both slugging percentage (.632)

player to reach that milestone. He has been stuck in an eight-game

RBI drought his longest since coming to Los Angeles. The last eight-

game RBI drought for Gonzalez occurred with the Red Sox from Aug.

SHOWING SIGNS: Yesterday, the Dodgers scored at least three runs

for the first time since plating six on May 15 vs. Colorado, but still

lead the National League in home runs (57), on-base percentage (.338)

and walks. In addition, Los Angeles leads the Majors Leagues in

slugging percentage (.447) and OPS (.751).

ONE OF THOSE DAYS: Yesterday, the Dodgers allowed a season-

games. Los Angeles still ranks third in the National League with a

3.34 ERA and holds the second best ERA among NL relievers at 2.53.

Tonight, the Dodgers send left-hander Brett Anderson to

the mound and this will be his first-career start against the

Braves. After posting a 5.49 ERA in April, Anderson is 1-1

with a 1.99 ERA (5 ER/22.2 IP) in four starts this month.

The Texas native has posted a 4.00 strikeout-to-walk ratio in

his four May starts (20 K/5 BB) and went a season-high 6.1

innings in his last outing at San Francisco.

Anderson’s ERA at home is 3.00 (7 ER/21.0 IP) as opposed

to 4.22 on the road (10 ER/21.1 IP).

CONTRAST IN STYLES: According to STATS, LLC, the Dodgers

have accounted for 45.6% of their runs via the longball, which is the

third-highest percentage in baseball. Home runs have accounted for

just 21.8% of the Braves’ runs, the lowest mark in the Majors.

Pederson has homered once every 11.58 at-bats, the fourth-highest rate

among MLB qualifiers.

SIMPLY DOMINANT: Kenley Jansen struck out one in another 1-

2-3 ninth inning Saturday night as he picked up his third save in his

fourth appearance since being reinstated from the disabled list on May

15. It was Jansen’s 13th consecutive scoreless appearance (13.0 IP)

dating to Sept. 5, 2014, with the right-hander going a perfect 8-for-8 in

save opportunities and limiting opponents to a .093 batting average (4-

for-43) with 19 strikeouts and a 0.54 WHIP in that span.

In 4.0 innings this year, Carlos Gonzalez is the only batter to

reach base off Jansen, doing so on a wild pitch after striking

out. Jansen has eight strikeouts and has yet to allow a hit or

issue a walk in four appearances.

Jansen’s career-long scoreless streak was a 19.0-inning run

in 17 appearances from June 18-Aug. 30, 2011.
