In a post on social media, the baseball team said "ICE agents came to Dodger Stadium and requested permission to access the parking lots", and were subsequently turned away. Los Angeles is among the cities where Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents have ramped up raids to find undocumented migrants.

DHS said the agents were Customs and Border Protection not ICE officials. As anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement protests continue in Los Angeles, dozens of federal agents were seen near Dodger Stadium on Thursday but were denied entry to the famed ballpark, according to the MLB team.

The parking lot is not technically owned by the team — former Dodgers owner Frank McCourt still owns the team parking lot — but is considered team property. McCourt sold the franchise to Guggenheim Baseball Management in 2012.
