The 2026 NLDS is here for the Los Angeles Dodgers, who are looking to start their run to a possible three-peat as MLB champions. And it's possible we'll see superfan Mary Hart cheering them on from the Dodger Stadium front row as they go.
The former host of Entertainment Tonight
has been known to be spotted in the front row of many games at Chavez Ravine, with fans pointing her out on social media.If you're clicking on this, it may be because Mary Hart is back to root on her favorite team. We all saw her a bunch as the Dodgers were en route to those past two World Series titles. Will we see her again this year in 2026?
No official word if she's going to show up or not, but if you're seeing her and you're wondering: It's probably Mary Hart at a playoff
game.
Why is Mary Hart a Dodgers fan in the first place?
Here's the full story, per MLB.com back in 2018:
Hart's Dodgers fandom began almost 40 years ago. She moved to Los Angeles in 1979 and was a bat girl at a Hollywood Stars game, the annual exhibition that for years was a fixture at Dodger Stadium. She met Dodgers legend and former manager Tommy Lasorda, who said to her, "Young lady, what is your dream?'"
Hart told Lasorda she likes to sing, and that she'd like to be on the field to sing the national anthem at a Dodgers game.
"And I was, 30 days later," she said. "Because of my friend, Tommy Lasorda. I've had a connection for a long time."
