After missing nine games due to an ankle injury, Los Angeles Dodgers star first baseman Freddie Freeman was activated from the 10-day injured list on Friday and in the lineup for the series opener against the visiting Chicago Cubs.
Freeman aggravated his surgically repaired right ankle on March 30 by slipping in the shower at home and went on the IL three days later.
Freeman originally injured his ankle back in September. After playing through it during the Dodgers' run to the World Series, he underwent surgery in the offseason.
The 35-year-old has played in three games for the Dodgers this season, going 3-for-12 with two home runs and four RBIs.
The eight-time All-Star is one of the most productive hitters in the game, posting 22 home runs, 89 RBIs, a .282 batting average and a .378 on-base percentage in 147 games last season. He belted the first walk-off grand slam in World Series history in Game 1 while helping the Dodgers defeat the New York Yankees in five games and earning World Series MVP honors.
