With the Los Angeles Dodgers team all set to face the Chicago Cubs for the opening day game, the athletes are busy exploring the land of the rising sun with respect to the cuisine and culture. Recently, the Dodgers’ designated hitter Shohei Ohtani invited his teammates over to a high-profile dinner. The glimpse of the get-together caught the attention of the media, but the MLB team’s first baseman Freddie Freeman stole the show.
Shohei Ohtani hosted a special dinner for his Dodgers’ teammates prior to their opening day game against the Chicago Cubs scheduled on March 18. With all eyes set on Ohtani at his homeland, someone else stole the spotlight from him during the team dinner.
Shohei Ohtani shared a glimpse of the high-profile team dinner on his Instagram handle, and his fans just cannot stop talking about it. In one of the shared clips, Dodgers’ first baseman, Freddie Freeman, was seen diverting all the cameras towards himself for his honest reaction after consuming raw sea urchin sushi.
According to the clip, a chef served Freeman a piece of raw sea urchin sushi, and he was quite skeptical before trying it. Kike Hernandez along with his other teammates encouraged him with chants Open mind! Open mind! With all eyes on him, Freddie Freeman went ahead and took a full bite of the dish and instantly said,
“It’s not bad. Wonderful!”

Freeman's teammates cheered loudly for him. The clip went viral on the internet, and the netizens cannot stop talking about the Dodgers’ first baseman and his sushi-tasting endeavors.
Despite gearing up for the opening day on March 18 against the Chicago Cubs, the Los Angeles Dodgers suffered one of their biggest blows as soon as they landed in Tokyo. Dodgers’ popular shortstop Mookie Betts was down with an illness and has been sidelined for the two opening day games against the Chicago Cubs in Tokyo. Reportedly, Betts has been replaced by shortstop Miguel Rojas.
