NEW YORK -- Freddie Freeman set the course in the Los Angeles Dodgers' run to the championship with a historic homer -- and kept right on swatting his way to World Series MVP.

Freeman homered in each of the first four games of the Series, then drove in two runs with a clutch two-out single during the Dodgers' 7-6 clinching win in Game 5 on Wednesday night.

While Freeman had a record-setting streak of six straight World Series games with a homer snapped, he just missed extending the mark to seven -- Aaron Judge snagged a Freeman drive early in the game at the fence that might have just cleared the wall.
