SHARE

For the first time in four seasons, MLB Players Weekend is returning and will be held from Aug. 16-18. The three-day event again gives players an enhanced voice and creative outlet as they showcase their personalities with an eye toward growing the game.

The concept was originally introduced by the league and MLB Players Association in 2017. It then spanned across three seasons and featured specially-designed jerseys, caps, bats and equipment.

Players’ interests, backstories and charitable causes that are important to them will be highlighted throughout Players Weekend 2024.

A different aspect of players lives will be highlighted each day through game presentation elements in-stadium, broadcast enhancements with media partners, including the release of social media content and more.

MLB Players Weekend details

Who is participating in Players Weekend?

All 30 teams are taking part in Players Weekend 2024. The Los Angeles Dodgers are playing the St. Louis Cardinals in a road series, which includes a nationally televised game for Fox Saturday baseball with first pitch scheduled for 4:15 p.m. PT.

The Little League Classic, which debuted in 2017 and features two MLB teams in a regular-season game at Muncy Bank Ballpark at Historic Bowman Field in Williamsport, Pa., has been incorporated into Players Weekend this year.

The New York Yankees are facing the Detroit Tigers in a game that will be televised as part of ESPN Sunday Night Baseball at 4:10 p.m. PT. This will be both teams’ first appearance in the Little League Classic.

MLB awareness

Points of emphasis throughout the three days are due to be on fun, causes and appreciation.

FUN (Friday, Aug. 16): Fun aspects of players’ personalities, friendships and off-field interests will be featured.

CAUSES (Saturday, Aug. 17): Focus on charitable and community initiatives that are important to players.

APPRECIATION (Sunday, Aug. 18): Players will celebrate the people who helped them on their path to the Major Leagues.

No jersey nicknames for Players Weekend 2024

One notable change for Players Weekend 2024 is going to be the absence of jerseys with nicknames. Furthermore, player uniforms are not going to be altered in any way for what the league has deemed a “reimagined” weekend.

However, Players Weekend is going to include special New Era caps featuring a uniform number on the side panel in a youthful design. Players will also be able to utilize customized bats during the games and can continue with wearing cleats that have personalized designs.
