Freddie Freeman ‘Frustrated’ With Ongoing Struggles
The Los Angeles Dodgers fell 7-3 to the Washington Nationals on Saturday in a game that saw the top of the lineup continue to struggle. Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman went a combined 1-for-12 with six strikeouts in the loss.
The trio has collectively gone just 8-for-their-last-57 at the plate (.140 batting average). Freeman has accounted for half of those hits, but overall is not happy with his recent results.
“I mean, I can’t speak for anybody else, but I can speak for myself,” Freeman said of the top of the lineup’s offensive woes. “I haven’t been very good for a while, so just trying to figure it out.
“Did the net drill many, many times last few days, but still not clicking. A couple better swings tonight, so hopefully I can build on that.”
A Texas man found out he was married after police say his ex-girlfriend filed a marriage certificate without his knowledge after they broke up.
The 42-year-old man contacted Beverly Hills Police Friday to report he had found a Bath & Body Works gift bag from his ex-girlfriend, Kristin Marie Spearman, a 36-year-old from Waco, at his home, authorities said in a press release.
Police say the package contained a picture of Spearman holding a marriage license showing she and the man were married. There was also a copy of a marriage certificate which was filed with the county clerk’s office in the gift bag, according to authorities.

The man told police he was in a relationship with Spearman and they obtained marriage licenses earlier this month ahead of their planned wedding. But the man said he had later broken up with Spearman after getting into an argument, cops say.
The marriage license was officiated by a local reverend, according to authorities. Investigators found Spearman convinced the reverend to certify the marriage license “without the knowledge of the victim and his required presence,” the press release read.
Spearman was arrested at her home on a third-degree felony stalking charge and taken to a local jail.
