With Dodger Stadium unavailable the first week of June, the City Section will have to change its league and playoff schedule this spring in order to play the championship finals on May 27 at Dodger Stadium. The likely schedule would have first-round games May 18, quarterfinals May 20 and semifinals May 24.
