Raptors 905 Primer: How a camp roster is built, G League rights, two-ways and more
With the Raptors set for a rebuild, the team’s focus could be on player development and future success. For now, that could mean a return to glory for the Raptors 905. Here’s how the G League squad projects to shape out this season.
NEW YORK — Freddie Freeman tied George Springer’s record of homering in five straight World Series games, hitting a two-run drive off the New York Yankees’ Clarke Schmidt in the first inning to put the Los Angeles Dodgers ahead 2-0 in Game 3 on Monday night.
Seeking its second title in five years, the Dodgers entered with a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven series.
Shohei Ohtani, playing two days after partially separating his left shoulder, walked on four pitches leading off. After Mookie Betts flied out, Freeman drove a high cutter with a 1-2 count about five rows deep into the lower deck in right field.
Freeman homered in Atlanta’s last two games against Houston in the 2021 World Series, and he has connected in all three games of this one. An eight-time All-Star and the 2020 NL MVP, the 35-year-old Freeman has seven RBIs in the Series.
Freeman sprained his right ankle on Sept. 26 against San Diego while trying to avoid a tag at first base by San Diego’s Luis Arráez and missed the Dodgers’ last three regular-season games.
His game-ending, 10th-inning grand slam in Game 1 on Friday night, which gave the Dodgers a 6-3 win, was his first home run since Sept. 16. He followed Teoscar Hernández for back-to-back homers in the third inning of Game 2.
Springer homered in Games 4 through 7 in 2017 as the Astros beat the Dodgers for the title, then hit another in the 2019 opener against Washington.
