During the recent Los Angeles Dodgers Holiday Zoom Party, various members of the organization shared their favorite Christmas memories and traditions.
Cody Bellinger revealed the most memorable gift he received as a child was an electric scooter that unfortunately broke shortly after riding it for the first time. As for the present, the 25-year-old noted that a gaming PC sat atop his Christmas list this year, as he looks to upgrade from his Xbox One console.
Clayton Kershaw also admitted that he is not the best gift wrapper and made it a priority to avoid a late night of having to do so.
In a follow-up video shared on Twitter, Bellinger, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts and others picked their favorite Christmas movies, songs and meals:

The Christmas Day meals were more diverse, with Edwin Rios naming rice and coquito as some of his favorite holiday foods. Bellinger mentioned banana bread and green bean casserole, while Roberts picked egg nog and wine as his go-to Christmas drinks.
