Plates three runs Wednesday Freeman went 2-for-4 with three RBI in Wednesday's loss to the Phillies. Impact The Dodgers went 3-for-13 as a team with runners in scoring position, but Freeman was 2-for-2, stroking a run-scoring single in the first inning and a two-run single in the second. It was the first baseman's third game back since missing eight contests to attend to a family matter, and he hasn't shown any rust since returning, going 4-for-12 with at least one hit in each game. While Freeman's season numbers (.287/.392/.491 slash line, 16 homers, five steals) are mostly down in comparison to last year, he's at 67 RBI through 464 plate appearances, giving him a reasonable shot to reach 100 RBI for the third consecutive campaign.
