Freddie Freeman has his first hit as a member of the Los Angeles Dodgers, and it seems Atlanta Braves fans aren’t sure how to feel.
The Los Angeles Dodgers finally got to debut Freddie Freeman in their lineup. With the season underway, Freeman was finally allowed to play for his new team.
In addition to his first game as a Dodger, Freeman also has his first hit for Los Angeles.
This must be exciting for Freeman and Dodgers fans!
But how do Atlanta Braves fans feel about this? How do you react to Freeman showing up and doing plays for Los Angeles?

It looks like some people are still interested in showing Freeman some support. It’s not an overwhelmingly large group online (at least not right now), but there are still some Braves fans who don’t seem thrilled that Freeman isn’t in Atlanta.
Meanwhile, it seems like many others are happy to step into a new era with a new first baseman. Matt Olson already has a growing number of fans.
It’s entirely possible that over time, more Atlanta fans will ease up a little with the whole Freeman situation. It’s always very difficult when a franchise loses, for one reason or another, a player who’s a longtime fan favorite on your team. With the way the Freeman situation unfolded and ended in Atlanta, it’s not shocking that many Braves fans are happy to move on.
But now, as time goes by and Freeman gets closer to his retirement, it seems likely that people will focus on things other than Freeman going to Los Angeles.
