Kalshi has silently entered into sponsorship deals with Major League Baseball teams the Los Angeles Dodgers and Boston Red Sox. Although not publicly announced, the partnerships come at a time when Kalshi sees heavy opposition in the states where the teams are based.
Sportico was the first to report the news, adding that the lack of an official press release from Kalshi or either team suggests both parties may be avoiding potential backlash, as happened to fellow MLB team the New York Mets after their July announcement of a partnership with prediction market platform Novig.
Kalshi branding was displayed at both the Dodgers’ digital outfield signage and behind the home plate this month, while the Red Sox placed Kalshi’s logo in a social media graphic on Friday, displaying the tag line, “see what happens next on Kalshi.”
