From the very moment the Dodgers lifted their second straight World Series Ring, they were soaked in champagne. The party hasn’t stopped since. The team’s excitement has remained high, from the on-field celebration after Game 7 to the packed victory parade at Dodger Stadium. And now, days later, the after-party has given supporters another amazing moment: their $162M slugger stole the show with a dance move that had the entire baseball world laughing and shaking their heads in disbelief.

That player with dance moves? Freddie Freeman. He signed a six-year, $162 million deal with Los Angeles in March 2022, has become the Dodgers’ most reliable presence both at the plate and in the clubhouse. The 36-year-old put together another stellar campaign in 2025, slashing .295/.367/.502 with 24 home runs and 90 RBIs across 147 games.

His consistency has been remarkable since arriving from Atlanta, earning All-Star selections in all four seasons with the club. Beyond the numbers, Freeman brings a championship pedigree that few can match.

He now owns three World Series rings—one from his 2021 victory with the Braves and back-to-back titles with the Dodgers in 2024 and 2025.

So, while he was celebrating this latest accolade, a moment went viral on Social Media. When MLB posted a video on X of Freeman doing “The Worm” at a party, the clip circulated quickly. It’s not only because fans didn’t expect the manoeuvre, but also because Freeman did it in a way that was surprisingly smooth and rhythmic.

The comments began to come in, showing how much his personality shines through in his performance.

The worm dance was just another chapter in Freeman’s developing status as the team’s emotional center.

Freeman spoke to more than 52,000 fans at Dodger Stadium on Monday to celebrate the win. He spoke with the same passion that defines how he plays the game. He said, “There is nothing better than hoisting up these trophies for you guys… Job in 2024, done. Job in 2025, done. Job in 2026 starts now.”

The worm move wasn’t just a goofy thing to do at a party. Fans took it as a sign that the Dodgers aren’t just getting through success; they’re experiencing it, loving every moment of the ride.

This fan captured the essence of Freeman’s remarkable journey so far. “A multi-time All-Star, MVP, World Series Champ, and now a master of ‘The Worm.’ Is there anything Freddie Freeman can’t do?” The comment points to his decorated resume—nine All-Star selections, the 2020 NL MVP award, three Silver Slugger awards, and a Gold Glove. Now with three championship rings, Freeman has accomplished nearly everything possible in baseball. Yet here he was, showing a completely different skill set that left everyone surprised.

A playful jab at the party running till late and even after days of winning the Ring. “When the champagne hits just right 💀.” The timing of this observation adds humor, implying Freeman’s smooth moves were due to celebration drinks. Ironically, Freeman is known for being sober during celebrations. And the next fan clarified it!

The comment read, “Keep in mind, Freddie did this sober. He doesn’t drink.” Freeman’s choice not to drink alcohol is well-documented, making his uninhibited celebration even more remarkable. While teammates were riding the champagne-fueled high of victory, he matched their energy through pure joy and competitive spirit.

A fan recalled his heroic postseason performance that helped the Dodgers win. “This is the man who has 2 walk-off home runs in the World Series, btw.” Freeman’s dance celebration highlights his baseball success. In the 2024 World Series, he hit the first-ever walk-off grand slam in Game 1. In 2025, he broke an 18-inning tie in Game 3 against the Blue Jays with a homer. His postseason heroics contrast beautifully with his entertaining dance moves, highlighting his versatility as both an athlete and a lively personality.

Looking ahead to 2026, this fan speculates whether Freeman’s worm dance might become the next viral Dodgers celebration. “Omg, a new celebration coming next season?” The team already uses “The Freddie” as their primary rally move, but adding the worm could elevate their celebrations. As baseball celebrations evolve from handshakes to coordinated dances, it’s likely teammates will try the worm after big hits next year.

The Dodgers foster a culture where fun and winning coexist, and Freeman perfectly embodies this philosophy.
