The Route: Catch deGrom Friday night in Arlington, sleep in DFW, then drive south on I-45 Saturday morning — about four hours in moderate traffic. Saturday night in Houston for Correa, then stick around Sunday for the Astros' City Connect Soccer Scarf on Father's Day. A weekend that knocks out two of the better bobbleheads of the summer at two of the top venues in Texas.

🎯 Don't Sleep On...
-
Dodgers (Sat 6/20): The Shaquille O'Neal Bobblehead. A Lakers legend in Dodger blue is the kind of crossover bobble that draws fans who don't usually show up to baseball games. Pair that with a Mookie bobble the night before and Dodger Stadium is the place to be all weekend.
-
Twins (Mon 6/22): Native American Heritage Night Jersey. Heritage night jerseys are typically unique-design pieces you can't buy retail. A Monday game means lighter crowds and a real shot at one. Target Field in late June is gorgeous.
-
Reds (Wed 6/24): Eugenio Suárez City Connect 1.0 Bobblehead. A midweek bobble at Great American Ball Park — easy grab, sharp uniform design. The Reds' City Connect remains one of the league's better-looking alternates.
-
Mets (Thu 6/25): Juan Soto Baseball Card Bobblehead. The biggest free agent of the offseason gets the card-bobble hybrid treatment. Thursday night at Citi Field — these tend to move quickly on the secondary market.
-
Athletics (Fri 6/19): History of Hip Hop Fireworks paired with a Juneteenth Heritage tee. Themed postgame shows tied to a culture-night theme are rare. Sutter Health Park has been one of the more consistently creative promo calendars this year.
👀 Looking Ahead
- Saturday June 27 is a four-bobblehead MLB day. Rafael Devers (Giants), Gunnar Henderson (Orioles), Byron Buxton (Twins), and Chandler Simpson Bobblelegs (Rays).
- I-5 Series kicks off June 26 — Dodgers at Padres for the weekend, then the series flips to LA the next week. Named-rivalry baseball at two of the prettiest ballparks in the league.
- 🇺🇸 July 4th Preview drops next Wednesday — America's 250th birthday lands on a Saturday, with fireworks at virtually every ballpark and patriotic giveaways across both leagues.
All giveaways are subject to availability and typically first-come, first-served. Arrive early.
