The Los Angeles Dodgers celebrated their 11th NL West title in the last 12 years following a 7-2 victory over the San Diego Padres. However, the celebration was tempered by the injury of star first baseman Freddie Freeman, who sprained his ankle during the game and is set to miss the upcoming series in Colorado. Initial X-rays on Freeman's ankle showed no major damage, and the Dodgers remain optimistic about his availability for the playoffs. This injury comes at a critical time as the team faces new challenges ahead. Freeman left the field in pain after a play at first base, raising concerns about the impact of his absence on the team's postseason aspirations.
