For the sixth-time in his career, Freddie Freeman is an All-Star.
The Dodgers slugging first baseman was named to the National League All-Star roster on Sunday evening, replacing Mets outfielder Starling Marte. He’ll now have the opportunity to take the field in his home ballpark, joining Tyler Anderson, Mookie Betts, Tony Gonsolin, Clayton Kershaw and Trea Turner as one of six players on LA’s roster to play in the showcase.
Although he was left off of the original roster, Freeman’s numbers so far in 2022 have been of All-Star caliber. In his first season with the Dodgers, the 32-year-old leads all of MLB in hits with 114.
