Since Dodgers All-Star first baseman Freddie Freeman joined Los Angeles last season, he has quickly become a fan favorite. For so long, Freeman was the enemy during his time with the Atlanta Braves, but now he is back home with LA.
Tuesday was his birthday, and the Dodgers gave him the best gift of all, a win. But throughout the game, there were different moments to help celebrate it.
“Before the game was over “Do the Freddie” from Freddie and the Dreamers provided a bouncy transition into the ninth inning and chants of “Fred-die, Fred-die, Fred-die,” rained down from the stands, with most fans clad in giveaway Freeman jerseys.
