Freddie Freeman (1B - LAD)
8/13/26 6:31 AM - Dodgers' Freddie Freeman somehow avoids serious injury in frightening fall into visitors' dugout. Freddie Freeman apparently avoided serious injury when the Los Angeles Dodgers’ first baseman took a frightening tumble down the stairs and into the visitors’ dugout as he tried to catch a foul popup in the eighth inning Wednesday night. Freeman isn’t sure whether he’ll play when the Dodgers begin an important four-game series with the MLB-leading Brewers on Thursday, but he’s grateful his freefall to the dugout floor wasn’t much worse. Freeman stayed in the game and finished the top of the eighth, but Tommy Edman pinch-hit for him in the bottom of the inning before Los Angeles closed out a 4-2 victory, its fourth in five games.
