We sat down with Freddie Freeman to understand why he chose to play for Team Canada during the World Baseball Classic.
The Los Angeles Dodgers franchise, with seven World Series championships and 24 National League pennants since its beginnings in Brooklyn in 1890, is committed to a tradition of pride and excellence. The Dodgers are dedicated to supporting a culture of winning baseball, providing a first-class, fan-friendly experience at Dodger Stadium, and building a strong partnership with the community. With the highest cumulative fan attendance in Major League Baseball history, and a record of breaking barriers, the Dodgers are one of the most cherished sports franchises in the world.

Even as a Padres fan, meaning, as someone who has nightmares about Freeman hitting against us, this guy is so likeable. Not just because of this, he seems like a very nice guy at First Base, what a man!

The people who talk about citizenship is so stupid. If I had the opportunity, I would play for Korea even if I was born in the United States to honor my parents and the sacrifices they made for a better life. He fit the criteria. Therefore, he can play wherever he chooses.

Where a players parents came from literally mean nothing regarding anything. Where your parents are from doesn’t dictate your success. Support the nation you were born in.
