New York Yankees All-Star Aaron Judge has been appointed captain of Team USA for the 2026 World Baseball Classic as baseball prepares to return to the Olympics, featuring Dodger Stadium as the venue for the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. Baseball last appeared at the Tokyo 2021 Olympics where the U.S. earned a silver medal. After being excluded from the Paris 2024 Olympics, baseball will be back in Los Angeles, where it holds historical significance, having previously hosted several important games.
"America's favorite pastime will capture the world's attention when baseball makes its Olympic return in Dodger Stadium in Downtown Los Angeles, one of the world's most iconic stadiums."
"We could not be more excited that Dodger Stadium will play host to the Olympic Games in 2028, this iconic ballpark played a significant role in the original inclusion of baseball on the Olympic programme."
