Dodgers News: Kolten Wong Trying to Emulate Freddie Freeman’s Approach to Hitting

Kolten Wong is off to a good start in Los Angeles.

Since being acquired by the Dodgers last month, the second baseman has played in 16 games for LA — primarily off the bench — and has had 24 at-bats over that time. It’s a small sample size, but Wong’s done well when given his opportunity, slashing .250/.321/.500 with two home runs and eight RBI. It’s a marked difference from his stint with the Seattle Mariners earlier this season, where he hit just .165/.241/.227 over 67 games, and Wong could even make the postseason roster at the rate he’s been producing.
