Freddie Freeman Gets World Series Ring, Fights Back Tears in Return to Atlanta

Friday night was Freddie Freeman’s first game back in Atlanta since signing with the Dodgers, and it was an emotional night for both him and the fans.

First, the organization prepared a pregame video that they showed on the jumbotron, which included all of Freeman’s biggest moments in a Braves uniform.

Once the video ended, Freeman was introduced on the field, and the crowd gave him a huge standing ovation as the first baseman fought off tears.

His final accomplishment in Atlanta was winning the World Series, and Freeman finally received his World Series ring.
