Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman and Chelsea have had a difficult past few weeks since the conclusion of the 2024 MLB All-Star week. Their son Maximus suffered from a rare neurological disorder known as Guillain-Barre syndrome.

Freeman was relieved of his duty with the Dodgers to take care of his family during this unforeseen medical emergency. He made a comeback to the roster during Monday's Game 1 of the three-game series against the Phillies. During Game 2 on Tuesday night, Freddie reached another career milestone in the MLB as he registered his 500th career double in the big leagues.

Chelsea Freeman celebrated the historic feat by sharing a story on her Instagram account with the caption:
