Reiner Siblings Throw First Pitches at Dodger Stadium to Honor Late Parents

The ceremony linked the family’s decades‑long Dodgers tradition to public mourning, coming as their son’s murder case moves toward pretrial hearings.

Overview

  • Jake and Romy Reiner made a rare public appearance on Sunday, Aug. 2, throwing ceremonial first pitches at Dodger Stadium in a tribute to their parents, Rob and Michele Reiner.
  • The siblings wore jerseys reading “Reiner,” posed with Dodgers players Alex Call and Miguel Rojas, and used the ballpark as a place to remember a family ritual passed down through generations.
  • Their brother, Nick Reiner, was arrested hours after the Dec. 14, 2025 deaths, has pleaded not guilty to two counts of first‑degree murder, remains jailed without bail, and has a preliminary hearing set for mid‑September.
  • Official records reported that Rob and Michele died within minutes of sustaining multiple sharp‑force injuries, but many investigative and autopsy details have been kept from public view and some records remain sealed.
  • The outing underscores how the family is publicly mourning while the criminal case proceeds and leaves key next steps to watch for, including prosecutors’ decision on seeking the death penalty and the upcoming pretrial schedule.
