Los Angeles Dodgers star Freddie Freeman made history when he scored an impressive walk-off grand slam in the first game of the World Series on Friday, October 25 — and it was only fitting that he shared the moment with his family.
After the game, Freeman, 35, sprinted over to find wife Chelsea Freeman waiting on the edge of the baseball diamond. They immediately embraced in a massive bear hug and kissed in front of the cameras.
Thanks to Freddie’s walk-off grand slam — a home run hit when all three bases are already loaded by other athletes — the Dodgers won the game 6-3. Chelsea also celebrated the moment via social media.
“!!!!!!! WALK OFF GRAND SLAM,” Chelsea, 33, captioned an Instagram Story pic of the moment on Saturday, October 26. “Am I dreaming or is this real life?!”
When Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman steps up to the World Series plate, wife Chelsea Freeman will support him from the stands in style. “World Series fittings,” Chelsea, 33, wrote via Instagram Story on Tuesday, October 22, alongside a shooting star emoji.

Chelsea was actually Freddie’s second stop after the game ended. He first celebrated the moment with his dad, exchanging a high-five.
“He has been throwing batting practice since I can remember. My swing is because of him. My approach is because of him,” Freddie said in a postgame press conference. “I am who I am because of him. All the batting practice, all the relentless hours we spent together on a baseball field, we still do it in the offseason together. He still throws me batting practice.”
Freddie also pointed out that his dad was “so nervous” ahead of the World Series, which the Dodgers are playing against the New York Yankees.
“I just wanted to share that with him because he’s been there and he’s been through a lot in his life, too,” the MLB star said. “I just wanted to be a part of it with him at that moment because that’s mostly his moment. Because if he didn’t throw me batting practice, or even if he didn’t love the game of baseball, I wouldn’t be here playing this game. That’s Fred Freeman’s moment right there.”

Chelsea also reposted a photo of Freddie and his father onto her Story one day later, writing, “This pic is everything.”

Freddie signed with the Dodgers in 2022, one year after winning the World Series with the Atlanta Braves. Throughout his MLB career, Chelsea has been by his side. (They got married in 2014.)
Chelsea watched Friday’s game with her father-in-law, as well as her and Freddie’s three sons. They share Charlie, 8, Brandon and Max, both 3. Max, for his part, recently recovered from a hospital stay after being diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome.
