Freddie Freeman's road to the 2024 World Series MVP title was marked by personal trials, particularly concerning his son, Maximus, diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome. In July, after multiple hospital visits, the family faced a daunting reality. Upon returning to play, Freeman received a heartfelt standing ovation from fans, charging him emotionally. Chelsea Freeman later expressed relief as Max showed significant recovery progress, though he still faced the challenges of physical therapy. Their journey illustrates resilience amid adversity, culminating in Freeman's historic grand slam performance.
"When you're crying on a Major League Baseball field, it's really hard to hit a pitch that's coming."
"Max is - he's doing all right. His personality's back. He's Max. He's doing good in that aspect."
