LOS ANGELES — Just when the Freddie Freeman saga couldn't get any more nauseating, it somehow did. The Dodgers' new first baseman went into hiding on Thursday before the opening game of a four-game series against the San Diego Padres.
The story of his divorce with the Atlanta Braves won't die because the image-conscious part of him is determined to rewrite history, his tear-stained efforts to continue playing the victim revealing him to be the archetype of the entitled athlete.
Good thing he's hitting.
