Former Dodger Kenley Jansen’s Reunion Photos at All-Star Game Stirs Up All the Feels

When the All-Star Game comes around every summer, its a time to see the best players in the league showcase their skills amongst their peers. 

Since there is a large collection of players who are either friends off the field or former teammates, the All-Star Game is also seen as a reunion. 

No one was more excited to see their ex-teammates at this year's game than former Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen. 

In an Instagram post, Jansen shared some photos he took with Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw and former Dodgers shortstop Corey Seager. 

The photos were taken during the All-Star Workout day at T-Mobile Park on Monday. 

Jansen, Kershaw and Seager were all a part of the 2020 Dodgers team that would win the World Series. The three players were teammates for seven seasons. 

The Dodgers won six NL West titles in the seven years the three played together. 

In the 2020 playoff run that ended with a championship, Kershaw, Jansen and Seager were all very important to the team. 

Seager won the World Series MVP after hitting .400 in the six-game series over the Rays. 

Jansen struggled in the two games he pitched in, but converted 11 saves in 13 opportunities during the shortened regular season. 

Kershaw won both games he started during the World Series and struck out the Rays 14 times. 

Both Jansen and Seager left the Dodgers in free agency in 2021. 

Since leaving the Dodgers both players have been successful with their new teams.

Jansen recently recorded his 400th career save with the Red Sox and Seager would be the frontrunner for American League MVP if Shohei Ohtani was not playing. 

Kershaw, who is still with the Dodgers, has shown no signs of slowing down and is the still the ace for one of the best teams in baseball. 

As All-Star week continues, there will be many more opportunities for other former Dodgers to reunite.
