The event, which began in 2017, will run from 10am–2pm and will raise funds for a selected cause.
This year, organisers will donate all proceeds to locals Josh and Stacey Garner, with Mrs Garner living with cancer.
Dodgers’ captain Cazz Blyss said they hoped the family could attend the game.
“It just depends on how well she is. Otherwise there’ll be representatives from the family,” Blyss said.
There will be a barbecue and raffle tickets, as well as stubby holders for sale, throughout the day.
It will be a very social game to help a family.

Blyss said it will be “a game of softball with a twist”.
“Essentially, it will be a very social game to help a family and a cause,” she said.
“I encourage all Yass residents to attend and have a good day.”
“All donations – small and big – will go a long way,” she said.
Twelve raffle-ticket prizes are on offer, including a Pandora bracelet, artwork and vouchers for beauty treatment and carpet cleaning.
The raffle ticket winners and presentation will happen at Walker Park after the game.
There will also be a band providing entertainment.
Post-event celebrations will be at the Yass Bowling Club from 5pm until late.
The inaugural event in 2017 raised $1330 for Circle of Friends, where the Dodgers secured the win by only one run.
The Aussie Heat will once again be captained by Trish Rickets. About 40 players from both teams will take part in the match.
Players from the losing team will wear their bras on the outside of their shirts for photos.
After the success in 2017, the event has become an annual one on the Yass sporting calendar.
Organisers have described it as a “dream come true”.
