It was the first time in 18 months that a live audience could attend a major league baseball game at Los Angeles’ Dodger Stadium. As a reduced-capacity crowd of more than 15,000 people gathered at Friday afternoon’s home opener to celebrate the franchise’s World Series championship from last season, many in attendance took the opportunity to express their displeasure for Democratic Mayor Eric Garcetti.

The Los Angeles Times reported, “For more than a year, we’ve been warned that singing, chanting and yelling is best avoided, for fear of exhaling virus-carrying droplets. On Friday, thousands of fans at Dodger Stadium exhaled loudly, booing Garcetti as if he were Chase Utley in New York.”
