On MLB’s opening week ahead of the 2024 season, the alma mater of Los Angeles Dodgers star first baseman Freddie Freeman also got a new beginning.<\/span><\/p>\n

El Modena High School (Orange, Calif.) unveiled its new Freddie Freeman Clubhouse, courtesy partly due to a $500,000 donation from the 2020 MVP to the program.<\/span><\/p>\n

The 1,440-square-foot building includes a locker room, a team meeting area with monitors, a coaches’ office, and larger batting cages.<\/span><\/p>\n
