Before the Dodgers faced off against the Braves last night, Dodger organist Dieter Ruehle, who once famously played the Legend of Zelda theme song during the World Baseball classic, started the evening with a little tribute to the late Linkin Park frontman Chester Bennington.

"Numb," was one of the band's most popular songs off the 2003 album Meteora.

The gesture did not end there.

Los Angeles starting pitching Brandon McCarthy paid his own tribute to Bennington by choosing a Linkin Park for his entrance music.
