Freddie Freeman’s torturing of the Yankees is now tying records.
Freeman’s first-inning two-run homer gave the Dodgers a 2-0 lead in Game 3 of the World Series and marked the fifth straight Fall Classic game the first baseman has homered in.
Freeman, 35, tied the mark held by the Astros’ George Springer and is the clear frontrunner for World Series MVP through two-plus games.
The first two came in 2021 when he helped the Braves defeat the Astros in six games.

Yankees starter Clarke Schmidt opened the game by walking Shohei Ohtani and after Mookie Betts flew out to left, Freeman launched over the right field fence to quiet a raucous Yankee Stadium crowd.
Freeman hit the walkoff grand slam in Game 1 against Nestor Cortes and then hit a solo shot off Carlos Rodon in Game 2 to push the Dodgers’ lead to 4-1.
Freeman, who is battling a sprained ankle, had not homered since Sept. 16 before his barrage of blasts against the Yankees.

“Actually felt pretty good,” Freeman said after his Game 1 heroics.
“The last six days we treated it really well. I’ve been feeling pretty good. Right when I ran out to give high-fives to my teammates, I felt pretty good, because that was the first time I ran all week. So, ankle’s good.”
