Freddie Freeman had an emotional reunion with his former Atlanta Braves teammates, then went out and hit his first home run to help the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 7-4 victory that extended their winning streak to seven games.
While Freeman was coming off a four-hit performance and been part of other highlights early into his Dodgers career, the long ball continued to evade him. Freeman quickly changed that by sending the second pitch he saw from Huascar Ynoa into the pavilion in center field.
Freeman’s at-bat in the first inning again began with Dodgers fans chanting his name.
