Freddie Freeman made a wish of his own.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have one more wish, you gotta do it for me though,\u201d the Los Angeles Dodgers<\/a> first baseman told Make-A-Wish kid Kaylyn \u201cKK\u201d Alves, a 14-year-old with epilepsy. \u201cDo you promise to throw out the first pitch to me tonight?\u201d<\/p>\n

Alves was happy to grant Freeman’s wish after he had just made hers come true did indeed take the mound for the ceremonial first pitch at Dodger Stadium that April evening, capping a day in which her wish came true by getting to meet Freeman.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you play the game, you become role models for people, and that\u2019s what I got taught from wonderful parents and grandparents, to try and carry yourself the right way,\u201d Freeman told her. \u201cAnd for you to look at me like that and to want to meet me and spend your day here with me, it means the world to me.\u201d<\/p>\n
