Dodgers 1B Freddie Freeman (wrist) exits game vs. Brewers

Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman departed Sunday’s game against the Milwaukee Brewers after he was hit in the left wrist by a pitch from left-hander Jose Quintana in the bottom of the sixth inning.
Freeman tried to let an inside sinker from Quintana pass under his hands, but the pitch made contact just above his batting glove. Freeman immediately walked toward the Dodgers’ dugout and left the game with Los Angeles leading 6-4.
He was initially diagnosed with a left wrist contusion after going 0-for-2 with two strikeouts.
Freeman, 35, has been plagued with injuries. Toward the end of the 2024 season, he sprained his right ankle after making an awkward step at first base. While he played out the postseason, Freeman underwent surgery on the ankle in December.
He also opened the season with rib discomfort that was attributed to lingering pain from the 2024 playoffs. Freeman then aggravated his surgically repaired ankle in March after slipping in the shower at home, which resulted in the Dodgers placing him on the 10-day injured list.
The World Series MVP last October, Freeman is batting .292 with 10 home runs and 49 RBIs in 86 games. In 16 major league seasons with both the Atlanta Braves (2010-21) and Dodgers, he is a .300 hitter with 353 home runs and 1,281 RBIs in 2,119 games.
