The Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays are facing off in the 2025 World Series, with Game 1 set for Friday at Rogers Centre.
For the Dodgers, it represents a rare trip to Canada. They last traveled north of the border for a three-game series against the Blue Jays on April 26-28, 2024.
Freddie Freeman is an American citizen but has ties to Canada by way of his parents as they were both born in the country. The nine-time All-Star has honored them by playing for Team Canada in the World Baseball Classic.
Freeman particularly feels a close connection to Canada through his late mother, Rosemary Joy Freeman, and is excited to play there in the World Series.
