Freddie Freeman and his Los Angeles Dodgers teammates winning the 2024 World Series came amid a challenging time for the Freeman family.
“It’s an absolute roller-coaster of our emotions,” wife Chelsea Freeman said in a postgame interview on Wednesday, October 30. “We were at our ultimate low and then, to be here today is the ultimate high.”
She continued, “I’m so proud of him [from] everything that we’ve gone through as a family this year and all of his injuries. He’s Superman actually, but we’re so happy.”
After overcoming multiple injuries throughout the MLB season, 35-year-old Freddie went on to hit several home runs — including a walk-off grand slam — throughout the World Series. The Dodgers won the World Series against the New York Yankees on Wednesday, and the first baseman was named MVP.

Chelsea,33, and Freddie revealed in July that their 3-year-old son Max was hospitalized with Guillain-Barré syndrome. The toddler was discharged from the hospital last month.
“Max is still doing PT about three, four times a week,” Freddie said in the joint Wednesday interview with Chelsea. “So, we’ll continue that to get him, hopefully, back to normal and walking, but he is up and moving everywhere right now.”
According to Freddie, Max is “trying to run, but he’s not there yet.”
“This offseason will be trying to get Maximus back to full health,” the athlete added. He’s doing wonderful.”
In addition to Max, Freddie and Chelsea share sons Charlie, 8, and Brandon, 3. While all three boys attended the first few World Series matchups in Los Angeles, only Charlie traveled with his parents to New York City for the final games.

During the postgame chat, Charlie even stated that he was excited to watch the Dodgers clinch the championship.
“I saw him up there chanting!” Freddie noted, detailing what the World Series win meant to him. “That’s every kid’s dream is to come up big in those situations, [and] that’s what I’m gonna remember. I think it might live on for a long time, huh?”
Ahead of the World Series, Freddie had previously been candid about continuing to play ball throughout Max’s health scare.
“Every day it’s a mental grind,” Freddie told The New York Times earlier this month. “I’m mentally exhausted. It’s not just [Max] getting better. There’s so much more that goes into something like this. I could tell you I need more than three days. I could probably tell you I’d need the rest of my life to [reset].”
