Freese continues G6 heroics with leadoff HR
(MLB.com Los Angeles Dodgers)

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts had a hunch about David Freese in Game 6. He hit Freese leadoff for just the fourth time in his 10-year career and the first time since 2016 -- ostensibly with matchups on his mind, but maybe history, too. Freese promptly crushed a home run to right-center field against Brewers left-hander Wade Miley to hand the Dodgers a 1-0 lead at Miller Park.
