LA Dodgers players had a humorous reaction during a ceremonial first pitch Sunday in South Korea, as actress Jeon Jong-seo took the mound and seemingly captured their attention.

The Dodgers are currently in Asia playing exhibition games ahead of their regular season matchups against the Padres on March 20-21 in Seoul.

And before their exhibition against the Kiwoom Heroes on Sunday, the Los Angeles players were captivated by Jong-seo as they chatted in the dugout.

Pitcher Ryan Brasier appeared to point toward Jong-seo, while star man Freddie Freeman also looked on.

Pitcher Tyler Glasnow also smiled after Jong-seo threw his first pitch.

The Dodgers would go on to win the game 14-3.

The team has received considerable attention since signing two-way star Shohei Ohtani to a 10-year, $700 million contract this offseason.

The Dodgers star shocked the world when he announced he was married last month, and he revealed last week that his wife was Mamiko Tanaka, a former professional basketball player.

Ohtani said the upcoming season opener against the Padres in Seoul will provide “good memories” for him and his wife because she will be there to watch him, but he is trying to focus on baseball.

“I think it will be very good memories for both of us. But like I said earlier, I have a job to focus on. It’s baseball,” Otani said through an interpreter after landing in Seoul.

In late February, Ohtani, 29, said on Instagram that he was married to “a normal Japanese girl” whom he had known for three or four years.

Shohei Ohtani revealed last week that his wife is former professional basketball player Mamiko Tanaka.

Star says ‘I appreciate all the attention’ he’s received but wants to focus on baseball

Tanaka, 27, is a former professional basketball player who played for the Fujitsu Red Wave in the Japan Women’s Basketball League from 2019-23.

And Ohtani says he is aware of the intense international media attention on the Seoul games.

“I appreciate all the attention. Obviously the attention is always great, being a baseball player and being able to play with these great guys next to me. I’m really excited,” Ohtani said, referring to his two teammates speaking at the press conference, Mookie Betts and Freeman.

“I’m really used to the attention, but I just try to focus on what’s in front of me, whatever that is.”
