Turner invites Ed Sheeran to Dodger Stadium for wearing jersey at concert
Justin Turner and Ed Sheeran may have just become best friends.
The English pop artist is hosting three gigs at Los Angeles' Staples Center from Thursday to Saturday, and Sheeran decided to pay homage to the Dodgers third baseman for the second night's encore when he came out decked in Turner's No. 10 jersey to play "Shape of You, " which Turner uses as his walk-up music in the bigs.

That subtle ode to Turner later caught the attention of the infielder on Saturday, as he extended the singer an invite to Dodger Stadium whenever he has a chance.

According to Sheeran's upcoming tour dates, he has a two-day break following his gig Saturday before a concert in Denver, giving him the perfect opportunity to catch the Dodgers at home Sunday afternoon against the San Diego Padres. You know, if he wants to.
