The original airbrushed version of the T-shirt that Mookie Betts wore to the All-Star Game is shown on the floor of the Bricks & Wood office.
Lynch, owner and founder of Bricks & Wood, a streetwear brand created in his native South-Central Los Angeles, grew up going to Dodgers games with his grandfather. Lynch’s colleague, Malik Coney, who at one point interned for the Dodgers, also grew up a baseball fan in L.A. The pair wanted to call out what they saw as a lack of Black fans at Dodger Stadium, but also a lack of Black representation in a sport that remains overwhelmingly white.“We really want to highlight and create comfortability for the people who feel like, ‘You know what? I can’t play that sport, or I can’t go in this area, or I can’t be this type of person, because of the fact that there’s no representation of people that look like myself in it,’” Lynch said.
