Los Angeles Dodgers

Freddie Freeman gave Dodger Stadium a full-blown heart attack Wednesday night.

The Dodgers' first baseman went full Superhero mode in the top of the eighth inning against the Kansas City Royals in L.A., tracking an Isaac Collins popup ... and wound up face-planting into the visitors' dugout.

Freeman had a bead on the ball, which continued to drift further into foul territory ... and he looked ready to snag the ball for the second out of the inning.

Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner were honored at Sunday's Los Angeles Dodgers game ... and their son, Jake, and daughter, Romy, threw out the ceremonial first pitches.

Jake and Romy walked out to the mound in their custom "Reiner" Dodgers jerseys ... and they hugged after throwing their baseballs.

Rob, a lifelong Dodgers fan, was honored before the game in an emotional tribute.

Jake had previously written in a heartbreaking post that he and and his father shared love of the Dodgers -- and he wouldn't be able to set foot in Dodger Stadium without thinking about him -- so this was definitely a fitting way to honor his memory.

The World Series champions hit up President Donald Trump's White House on Thursday ... and while POTUS celebrated the Los Angeles Dodgers' incredible run, he first had to pat himself on the back for an extreme home makeover.

Trump kickstarted the ceremony by praising the revamped Rose Garden ... pointing out how it's more friendly for women who wear high heels -- and taking a shot at his predecessor, Joe Biden, as he listed all the new improvements to the area.

When he got to the task at hand, Trump put the spotlight on the Dodgers' ownership and players ... giving a big shoutout to Shohei Ohtani, for being a great two-way player, just like the legendary Babe Ruth.

Mike Tyson had his world flipped upside down at the ESPYs ... when he learned in real time Shohei Ohtani -- the biggest star in Major League Baseball -- is a man.

Iron Mike, Jake Paul and DJ Khaled presented the award for best single-game performance at Wednesday's event ... and when El Gallo said the Dodgers slugger sent "his gratitude and appreciation" for the win, Tyson's jaw dropped.

Right before the crowd clapped for Ohtani, who was not present for the ceremony, Tyson is heard on the hot mic asking his former boxing opponent if Sho-Time was really a dude.

Congratulations to Shohei Ohtani on hitting his 300th career home run ... and now that we got that out of the way, let's talk about these adorable baby raccoons!!

Two tiny trash pandas stole the hearts of baseball fans and animal lovers on social media Tuesday night ... when a clip of their visit to Dodger Stadium quickly went viral.

The cuties were caught on camera roaming underneath the outfield wall padding ... and the broadcasters assured viewers that help was on the way to bring them to safety.

It's Shotime ... AKA Shohei Ohtani's birthday! The baseball bday boy turns 32 today ... which calls for a celebration as big as his back-to-back World Series wins!

But what do you possibly get the GOAT of America's pastime?!

Consider this TMZ's love letter to the MLB MVP ... we've rounded up some of Shohei's most ballin' shots ... as the Dodgers' designated hitter and pitcher.

Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani is a father of 2!

The pitching and batting superstar announced early Saturday morning he and his wife, Mamiko Tanaka, welcomed their second baby together. He shared an Instagram post that showed a baby dressed in blue, cradled in a matching blue blanket ... but did not explicitly reveal his little one's name or gender.

He wrote he and Mamiko are "overjoyed" by their child's birth and thanked everyone who has supported their parenthood journey.

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Tanner Scott's family was targeted with death threats and wishes made toward their kids after a loss ... with his wife exposing the hateful comments on social media.

As the Dodgers held a 3-1 lead in the eighth inning, Scott took the mound against the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday ... but gave up three earned runs, resulting in a 4-3 loss.

After the final, some baseball "fans" unloaded unhinged messages to Scott's wife, Maddie ... writing wild things like "gun shot your family tonight."

Jake Reiner is leaning on Dodgers baseball to help carry him through unimaginable grief ... returning to cohost his podcast this week for the first time since the shocking murders of his parents, Rob and Michele Reiner.

The emotional comeback episode of "The Incline: Dodgers Podcast" dropped Wednesday ... with Jake opening up about the overwhelming support he's received since the tragedy -- you can check out how he's been flooded with love from friends, family and even the Dodgers fan community online.

"I’ve seen all the love, all the support out there," Jake said. "I really feel the love."

It's only mid-April, but it could've been October for Alex Vesia ... the Dodgers reliever was emotional on the mound after closing out the game in front of dozens of doctors and nurses who treated his late daughter, Sterling Sol, last year.

Tuesday night was the Dodgers' annual Healthcare Appreciation Night, and the 30-year-old pitcher invited almost 30 hospital workers who helped the family navigate the most difficult period of their lives in late 2025.

So, when Vesia entered the 2-1 game vs. the Mets in the 9th inning -- with closer Edwin Diaz unavailable -- Alex didn't squander the opportunity, striking out the side, getting the save, and sealing the win for Los Angeles.

Tuesday night marked the 2026 MLB debut for Shohei Ohtani ... but he was arguably the second biggest attraction at the stadium that night -- 'cause it was Yoshi bobblehead night at Dodger Stadium, and fans lined up for hours to get their hands on 'em!

Videos shared on social media show lines snaking around Chavez Ravine as fans tried to scoop up one of the 40,000 Yoshis being given away for the price of admission.

The man of the hour was also in attendance for the big night, with the Nintendo character posing for pics with his adoring fans. When he was done meeting fans ... Yoshi made his way down to the Dodgers' clubhouse -- where Yoshi met Yoshi and Yoshi.

The L.A. Dodgers may have won their opening day game against the Arizona Diamondbacks ... but some of their fans were big losers getting into a video-recorded brawl.

All the madness began Thursday afternoon at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, but the video above surfaced Friday on Instagram, and the footage is quite eye-popping.

Check it out ... in the clip, two women and two men go toe-to-toe in the stands, wrestling each other, pulling hair and throwing punches. During the brawl, one of the men falls backward, slamming into a metal railing ... but it doesn't seem like he or anyone else was seriously injured.

The Los Angeles Dodgers' Opening Day game was an emotional one for the Vesia family ... with Alex's wife sharing a heartbreaking post about their late daughter.

Kayla Vesia was present at Dodger Stadium as the back-to-back World Series champions took on the Arizona Diamondbacks ... and she admitted it was "a very bittersweet" start to the season.

"What I would give to have my Sterling girl here, carrying her in my heart always," she said.

Shohei Ohtani’s first World Series homer ball is up for grabs … and it’s expected to bring in a monster payday!

SCP Auctions tells TMZ Sports the historic baseball -- crushed by Ohtani in the 7th inning of Game 1 of the 2025 World Series -- could fetch $250,000 or more when bidding wraps Sunday.

The two-run shot came at Rogers Centre in Toronto … where a lucky fan ended up with the ball after it bounced off another spectator’s hands and dropped right to him in the outfield crowd.
