Yasiel Puig was more than AN HOUR late to Dodger Stadium on Monday -- missing a ring presentation from his former boss -- and all because he was out SHOPPING!
TMZ Sports shot video of the Cincinnati Reds star lunching at Il Pastaio in Beverly Hills around noon -- and then going on a fancy shopping spree to some of the most expensive shops in L.A. .... James Perse, Saint Laurent and more.
Our photog says Puig ventured out to Rodeo Drive and shopped until at least 3pm -- the exact time Puig was scheduled to meet with media members at Dodger Stadium.
