Freddie Freeman overcome with emotion before Braves-Dodgers game
He's back in Atlanta. That's right, the Braves and Los Angeles Dodgers are set to meet on Friday night and this of course marks the return of star first baseman Freddie Freeman to his former stomping grounds.
After helping the Braves win the World Series last year, the two sides couldn't get on the same page for a new contract. Freeman still loves this team and city. That much was made clear during his presser on Friday evening.
