Sunday insulted the Los Angeles Dodgers' injury after Domination World Series MVP Freddie Freeman kicked on his wrist.
The 35-year-old Freeman met an 88-mph sinker from Milwaukee Brewers starter Jose Quintana, who immediately started walking to the canoe and headed to the clubhouse soon. The Dodgers soon announced that they had left a left wrist bruise.
Freeman has attracted attention because he has been in pain since the start of the season. Since early June, he has hit .201/.274/.282, with only one home run and the 57 WRC+ ranked ninth among qualified players.

These struggles played a role in the Dodgers’ dilemma. The team has lost nine of their last 11 games and if they lose on Sunday, that leapfrog winemaker will face a second sweep.
