Freddie Freeman sets Dodgers record with 53rd double; 60 still within reach

The major-league leader in doubles this season is Dodgers initially baseman Freddie Freeman. He’s currently set his profession high, which was 47 (last season, when he led the majors). Friday, he got his 53rd two-bagger of 2023: 

How about that a person? It was a hustle/speed double. Freeman’s been flashing his knowledge and modest wheels on the bases this season with a career-high 17 taken bases. Still, we’re here for the doubles. That one, as kept in mind above, set the Dodgers franchise record and this is a storied franchise. 

The brand-new Dodgers leaderboard for doubles in a single season: 

1. Freeman, 53, 2023
2. Johnny Frederick, 52, 1929
3. Shawn Green, 49, 2003
4. Babe Herman, 48, 1930
t5. Freeman, 47, 2022
t5. Wes Parker, 47, 1970

In the larger image, Freeman’s rate recommends he has a possibility to do something truly unique. 

In reality, Freeman’s 53 doubles is currently connected for the 33rd most in MLB history. There have actually just been 24 specific gamer seasons with 55 doubles, just 10 with 58 and just 6 with 60-plus. With 53 doubles through 140 video games, Freeman is on rate to wind up with 61 doubles. 

Now, the Dodgers may well clinch the department and after that have absolutely nothing to bet in the last week, approximately, of the season. If that holds true, they’ll likely rest Freeman a video game or more and even more. That might have an effect here. Still, it deserves tracking, due to the fact that no MLB gamer has actually reached 60 doubles considering that Joe Medwick had 64 and Charlie Gehringer had 60 in 1936.
