Freddie Freeman commented on hearing the narrative of this year's National League Championship Series being a repeat of last season's.
Heading into Game 5 in 2020, Atlanta held a 3-1 lead over the Dodgers, coming off of a strong 10-2 win at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. The Braves took an early 2-0 in two innings before making a costly mistake that resulted in Mookie Betts catching the ball before it hit the turf. Los Angeles won that game, 7-3, and went on to snag the rest of the series to head to the World Series, which they later won.
