Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman was placed on the injured list on Thursday after aggravating his surgically repaired right ankle. Manager Dave Roberts told repor

Freddie Freeman found himself on the injured list this week, days after he slipped and fell in the shower at home and reinjured the ankle he hurt in the postseason.

The ankle is the same one that underwent surgery after the 2024 season. Freeman played through the pain for the entire MLB postseason after badly spraining his ankle at the end of the regular season, while also dealing with broken rib cartilage. Neither injury prevented him from hitting home runs in four straight games in the World Series.
