Here is a map of the Dodger Stadium Express service:
Dodger Stadium Express service is provided to all home games under a grant from the Mobile Source Air Pollution Reduction Review Committee (MSRC). The MSRC awards funding within the South Coast Air Basin from a portion of the state vehicle registration fee set aside for mobile source projects that result in emission reductions from cars and trucks. Funding for the Harbor Gateway Transit Center service is being provided by Metro’s ExpressLanes Net Toll Reinvestment Grant Program.

Is this info for 2018 or 2017?
Would there be any way to add a stop on the South Bay route for either 37th/USC or LATTC/Ortho Institute? This would allow Expo Line riders to use this service without schlepping to Union Station.
