Freeman enters Thursday's action with exactly a .300 average. His batting average last season was .282, so he will have to improve on that number to reach the .300 average. Freeman's contract runs through 2027, so he will also need another deal to reach 3,000 hits.

Freddie Freeman broke up a scoreless game with an eighth-inning sacrifice fly and six Dodgers relievers completed the shutout after starter Tyler Glasnow left with lower leg cramps one pitch into the fifth inning as Los Angeles beat the Texas Rangers 1-0 on Sunday.
