Freddie Freeman and the Dodgers set a new MLB record with six straight World Series games with a home run, surpassing the previous mark of five set by Reggie Jackson in 1977. Freeman homered in Game 1 and again in Game 2, becoming the first player to hit home runs in six consecutive Fall Classic contests. The Dodgers' offense exploded for 11 runs in Game 2, tying the World Series opener with a 11-2 victory over the Rangers. Freeman's historic performance continued the Dodgers' dominance at the plate, as they looked to extend their record-breaking streak in Game 3.
