Dodgers launch special rewards program for fans

Tommy Lasorda once said: "I bleed Dodger blue, and when I die, I'm going to the big Dodger in the sky."

Now it turns out that there are more immediate rewards.

The Dodgers on Thursday announced the launch of a comprehensive engagement program that will reward fans for supporting the club online, via social media and at Dodger Stadium. The freeDodgers Rewards program is the first of its kind in Major League Baseball and offers fans the chance to win prizes by supporting the team through an array of digital activities, including merchandise purchases online, checking into games through MLB.com's At the Ballpark mobile app and interacting online at dodgers.com and on the Dodgers' official Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts.

In fact, just by sharing this story with other fans on Facebook and Twitter, you are already on your way if you take a moment to sign up at Dodgers Rewards.com.

"We are creating an interactive rewards portal for all things Dodgers," said Lon Rosen, the Dodgers' executive vice president and chief marketing officer. "Being a sports fan is about passion and competition, and we believe through this platform we are entering the next phase of fan loyalty with the ultimate goal of rewarding our fans for their support."

The Dodgers Rewards program will create unique experiences and promotions for fans as incentives for supporting the club. The program will feature its first three sweepstakes, with the first one under way through March 15. Prizes include two tickets to Opening Day against the rival Giants on April 1; a tweet mention from @Dodgers; and a baseball autographed by Hall of Famer and Dodgers legend Sandy Koufax.

The Dodgers Rewards program was developed in partnership with MLB Advanced Media and Lodestone Social Media.

"It is exciting to have the Dodgers and MLBAM as our partners," said Mark Drosos, president of Lodestone Social Media. "Their collective commitment to this program will prove to create an even stronger bond between the team and its fans."

Point-scoring opportunities include purchasing Dodgers single game tickets, liking Dodgers posts on Facebook and mentioning @Dodgers on Twitter.

MasterCard, the preferred partner of the Dodgers, is a launch partner of the program and will be announcing exclusive rewards for its customers. Fans also will be able to redeem virtual tokens for discounts on Dodgers merchandise and free subscriptions to MLB.TV Premium. Additional Dodgers Rewards program sweepstakes will be launched throughout the 2013 season.

A Little Bit Of Magic Goes A Long Way

Dodger fans can finally have a moment to say they are proud. Proud to bleed Dodger blue. Proud to wear the blue and white. Proud to Think Blue! Finally, the Dodgers are back. No longer will fans have to deal with Frank McCourt's mishaps and ridiculous attempts to run a team. The focus is now on what's most important - baseball. 

I have been a Dodger fan my whole life and even though I'm still young, I know the ups and downs this franchise has been through. I was born in the early 1990s, so my first memories of the Dodgers are of Mike Pizza, Eric Karros, Gary Sheffield, and Raul Mondesi. Then onto the Sean Green, Paul LaDuca, Eric Gagne era. Finally to the current starts of Matt Kemp, Clayton Kershaw, and Andre Ethier. During that time I have watched the Dodgers rise to glory and fall to the lowest of lows. Unfortunately, the lowest came last year, when Frank McCourt and the Dodgers went bankrupt early in the season. The Dodgers where in the headlines, but not for anything that had to do with baseball. It was a nightmare in Los Angeles. Attendance was at its lowest in years, it was hard to put on my Dodger hat on every day.

But I did. Cause that's what true fans do. No matter whether your team wins 100 games or loses 100 games, you stick with your team to the end. In the middle of July the Dodgers were in last place, but by the end of the season, they finished with a winning record in third place. The Dodgers proved to me last season that they have heart. Even with an owner who doesn't seem to care. Now, Dodger fans finally have reason to smile. It just makes it that much sweater. When you stick with your team in the worst of times and then something like this happens and it makes it all worth it.

I haven't been this happy, excited, and proud to be a Dodger fan in a long time. I am more optimistic than ever heading into this season. I honestly believe that the Dodgers will be competitive THIS year! So, lets freaking do this! It all starts April 5th in San Diego, the journey back to glory. I have faith that our new leaders will take us there. We got Vin Scully back on the mic, Matt Kemp back in center field, Clayton Kershaw back on the mound, Don Mattingly back in the dugout, and Tommy Lasorda back in the stands. It's time to play some baseball boys. It's time for Dodger baseball!

An Open Letter to Dodger Fans - It's never easy to say goodbye. But from the bottom of my heart, I want to thank you for the overwhelming support you have shown during my years in Los Angeles. I leave with nothing but great memories and deep appreciation. Sincerely, Mike Piazza.
