During the Dodgers postseason run, Clayton Kershaw opened his home to Jack Dreyer and Emmet Sheehan so they wouldn’t have to stay in a hotel, while his wife Ellen and their four children returned to Texas for the beginning of the school year.
During this time, the three built a real connection off the field.
"Over a handful of nights out by the beach and evenings spent by the fire pit, Kershaw connected with teammates a decade his junior. They talked about life as much as they did baseball."
Dreyer said it felt "surreal" having these moments and living with Kershaw.
Sheehan admired the way Kershaw treated them saying: "He treated you like a teammate and like a peer and not like a little kid, which he could have.”
That’s what a championship environment looks like.
The Los Angeles Dodgers have signed All-Star outfielder Kyle Tucker to a four-year contract for $240 million. To make room on the 40-man roster, the Dodgers designated outfielder Michael Siani for assignment.
