Freddie Freeman Powers Dodgers During Injury Crisis

Freddie Freeman has been a driving force for the Los Angeles Dodgers, leading the team through a dominant stretch despite injuries to key players. Freeman is on a 12-game hitting streak, batting .478 with 11 runs, four home runs, and 18 RBIs, including a notable 3-for-4 performance with four RBIs and a bases-clearing triple in a 10-1 win over the Marlins. He recently surpassed 350 career home runs, entering the top 100 all-time MLB home run leaders. Despite missing earlier games due to an ankle injury, Freeman holds a .362 batting average, second only to Aaron Judge among qualified hitters. The Dodgers, who currently lead the NL West, rely on Freeman's steady production and leadership to offset pitching struggles and maintain a productive offense. His contributions have been essential to the team's early season success and postseason aspirations.
