Freddie Freeman has been so dominant in this World Series that Yankees fans came to Tuesday’s Game 4 prepared to beg the Dodgers first baseman for mercy.
One fan at Yankee Stadium even tried to convey that message to Freddie directly.
In the first inning, Freeman put the Dodgers ahead with a two-run home run to right field. It was his fourth homer of the series and extended his streak of home runs in six consecutive World Series games (including his 2021 win with the Braves).
As the Fox broadcast went to commercial at the end of the half inning, the telecast panned to a fan in the stands with just a spot-on sign. He wanted Freddie to stop.

Again, Freeman has been so unstoppable that one fan actually thought to make that sign ahead of time. It doesn’t get much better than that, and MLB fans certainly appreciated the self awareness.
This was how Twitter/X reacted
