Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman made World Series history on Friday night, having hit a walk-off grand slam against the New York Yankees in Game 1 on Friday night.
With L.A. trailing by one run in the bottom of the 10th inning and bases loaded, Freeman stepped up to face Nestor Cortes Jr., hitting his fastball into the right-field pavilion. The moment was especially remarkable as Freeman had been dealing with a badly sprained ankle that had limited him throughout the playoffs.
