Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman continued his historic performance in the World Series by hitting a two-run homer in the first inning of Game 4 against the New York Yankees. This is his fourth home run of the series, giving him more homers than the entire Yankees team in this World Series. Freeman's home run extends his streak to six consecutive World Series games with a homer, surpassing previous records held by George Springer and Reggie Jackson. He is the first player in MLB history to achieve this feat. With nine RBIs in the series, Freeman has significantly contributed to the Dodgers' success, and his remarkable performance dates back to the 2021 World Series. His homer gave the Dodgers an early 2-0 lead over the Yankees, further solidifying his case for the World Series MVP.
