Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman, his wife Chelsea and their three sons have arrived in Texas for the MLB All-Star Game, scheduled to be played on Tuesday at Globe Life Field. Ahead of the much-awaited event, Freeman and his son Charlie, along with other Dodgers players, paid a visit to a bull riding game.
Freeman, who was in his Dodgers gear, wore a cowboy hat while clicking photos while seated on a bull with his son Charlie. Dodgers two-way star Shohei Ohtani, MLB Home Run Derby winner Teoscar Hernandez and catcher Will Smith also took their turns on the bull.
The club's social media team shared the photos:

The LA Dodgers had a representative at this year's MLB Home Run Derby, and it was outfielder Teoscar Hernandez. Ahead of the event, Hernandez asked Charlie to be his towel boy, and Freddie Freeman's son accepted it.
Chelsea captured her son performing the duties of a good towel boy and shared them on social media. In the images, Charlie was "just one of the guys" standing among the circle involving big names like Shohei Ohtani, Juan Soto and Tyler Glasnow, all of whom were chatting up with Hernandez.
In another video posted, Ohtani shared a fist pump with Freddie's son.
Interestingly, Hernandez went the distance and eventually clinched the Derby contest.
Moreover, Chelsea also shared a family photo involving her three kids: Charlie, Brandon John and Maximus Turner, alongside her husband, Freddie Freeman.
"Home Run Derby With the Fam 🤠⭐️ #allstar," Chelsea wrote in the caption.
On Tuesday, Freddie Freeman's family will cheer him on from the stands for the MLB All-Star Game. The Dodgers first baseman was named in the NL reserves and will serve as backup to Phillies' Bryce Harper, who is starting at first base for the National League.
Other Dodgers stars in this year's All-Star Game include Shohei Ohtani, who will be in the NL starting lineup playing DH, Will Smith and pitcher Tyler Glasnow. Mookie Betts was also named to the squad but won't partake in the game given that he is nursing a fracture in his left arm.
