What is the Father’s Day Program in MLB The Show 23 Diamond Dynasty? This Sunday, June 18, marks a special US holiday known as Father’s Day, where families across the US honor all the dads that continue to have a supportive, meaningful, and positive impact on their children’s growth and development. Although this holiday is reflected across society in various ways, it holds a special place in sports as many father’s have also had the privilege to witness their very own children make it to the big leagues during their lifetimes.

Upon entering the Father’s Day Program, fans will notice a variety of goodies they can unlock.
