Freddie Freeman Emphasizes Need for Dodgers Small Ball Offense

Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman hit a solo home run in Game 2 of the NLDS against the Atlanta Braves, marking his third hit of the series. Following a game where all five Dodgers runs in Game 1 and both runs in Game 2 came via home runs, Freeman emphasized the need to generate offense without relying entirely on the long ball. He noted the difficulty of facing Atlanta's relief strategy and the team going 0-for-8 with runners in scoring position.
