Los Angeles Dodgers star Freddie Freeman underwent surgery on his right ankle on December 5, 2024, to remove bone fragments and excess tissue. After the surgery, Freeman shared a photo of his recovery on Instagram with the caption: “Worth it for the ring.”
Despite suffering an ankle injury late in the season, Freeman played a crucial role in the Dodgers’ 2024 World Series championship run. He was named World Series MVP after setting a record with 12 RBIs in the series, including the first-ever game-ending grand slam in World Series history.
The Dodgers’ medical staff stated that Freeman is expected to participate in baseball activities throughout spring training and will be ready for the 2025 season.
Freeman’s dedication and fighting spirit continue to inspire his teammates and fans as he prepares for the new season with the determination to defend the championship title.
