Vanessa Hernández, known by her stage name NOSEZA, sang a Spanish interpretation of the National Hymn of the United States at the Dodger Stadium on Saturday evening, and she said that the team wanted it.
“El Pendón Estrellado”, the official Spanish interpretation of the national anthem commanded by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1945, was sung by Noseza during the Los Angeles Dodgers match against the Giants of San Francisco.
Noseza, wearing a Dominican Republic shirt during his performances, published a video on Tiktok of an employee of the team saying to him: “We are going to do the song in English today.”

“I don’t know if it was not relayed,” said the employee in the video.
Noseza still decided to sing the Spanish version, saying in a later Tiktok video that it was in response to the American presence of immigration and customs application (ICE) in Los Angeles which led to demonstrations and disorders in the city.
“I didn’t think I would have met a kind of no,” said Noseza in his video. “Especially because we are in Los Angeles and everything happens. I sang the national anthem several times in my life, but today, every day, I could not.
“I just felt as if I needed to do it. Para magnant (for my people).”

PK Press Club Digital contacted the dodgers to comment.
The team also made no public declaration on the demonstrations that took place last week in Los Angeles.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts was questioned about the demonstrations and he maintained a neutral position.
“Honestly, I don’t know enough, to be completely honest with you,” he said, via athletics. “I know that when you have to bring people and expel people, all the troubles, it’s certainly disturbing for everyone. But I haven’t dug enough and I can’t talk about it intelligently.”

Meanwhile, one of the players of Roberts, the man in the veteran public service Kiké Hernández, made a message on social networks on Saturday evening before the match on the demonstrations.
“I may not be born and raised, but this city adopted me as one of their own,” wrote Hernández on Instagram. “I am saddened and furious by what is happening in our country and our city. Fans of Los Angeles and Dodger welcomed me, supported me and showed me that kindness and love. It is my second house. And I cannot bear to see our community being raped, profiled, abused and torn.
“All people deserve to be treated with respect, dignity and human rights. #Cityofimmigrant.”
Other professional sports teams based in Los Angeles have taken a position, including the Angely City FC of the NWSL, which gave fans of “Immigrant City Football Club” t-shirts in their match on Saturday. The players were also seen to warm up with the t-shirts before their match to show the support of those who protest.

The Spanish anthem by Noseza came on many demonstrations of “No Kings” on the day, which were against the military parade in Washington, DC, who coincided with the birthday of President Donald Trump, across the country.
Trump’s birthday was also celebrating the 250th anniversary of the US military.
