LOS ANGELES (AP) — Freddie Freeman is hearing it after he slipped and fell in the shower, injuring his surgically repaired right ankle and missing his second straight game for the Los Angeles Dodgers.

“Freak accident, you can’t really make it up, crazy,” Freeman said Tuesday.

The incident happened at home Sunday morning, an off day for the World Series champions.
