Jake and Romy Reiner Honor Parents With Ceremonial First Pitches at Dodger Stadium

The brief public tribute used the family’s Dodgers tradition to remember Rob and Michele Reiner as their brother remains charged and the case moves toward a September hearing.

Overview

  • Jake Reiner and his sister Romy took the mound in custom 'Reiner' Dodgers jerseys and threw ceremonial first pitches at Dodger Stadium on Sunday, Aug. 2, in a planned tribute to their late parents.
  • The siblings framed the appearance as a way to honor family memories tied to the team and to mark a private ritual in a public place the family long loved.
  • Their brother Nick Reiner remains jailed on two counts of first-degree murder, has pleaded not guilty, and is awaiting preliminary proceedings scheduled for September.
  • Media reports note that many forensic and investigative details from the December deaths remain under court control, so public coverage has focused on confirmed facts and the family’s grief rather than speculation.
  • The outing highlights the Reiners’ multigenerational Dodgers connection and underscores how public remembrance can coexist with an active criminal prosecution as the case moves toward pretrial stages.
