Freddie Freeman steals spotlight with viral "worm" dance at Dodgers’ World Series party

This was not the first time Freddie Freeman did a worm dance. The move was first done at a private post-parade celebration hosted by teammate Mookie Betts and his wife, Brianna, following the Dodgers’ back-to-back 2025 World Series win.

Much to the delight of his teammates, Freeman dropped to the floor and started mimicking the worm dance. In the video, Freeman is in a sports coat and jeans. Betts shared the video on TikTok and wrote:

"Last night was all love... Freddie was moving!!"

Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy had quite the reaction to Freeman's unexpected dance move.

"Big a** man doing the worm, I'll say that," Muncy said.

Freddie Freeman's wife, Chelsea Freeman, also shared the moment on social media, captioning it:

"Off-season Freddie"

Freeman has every right to celebrate the way he did. After all, he won his third World Series of his MLB career. This includes a title with the Atlanta Braves before he signed with the Dodgers in free agency.
