Two-thousand hits hadn\'t been much of a thought in Freddie Freeman\'s mind; the hallowed number, and the ultimate goal, is 3,000. But his 6-year-old son, Charlie, kept reminding him about it.
The Los Angeles Dodgers\' homestand was coming to an end, a mini slump was prolonging, and Freeman was running out of time. Finally, with two outs in the eighth inning of Sunday\'s home finale, it came -- a scorching double into the right-center-field gap and career hit No. 2,000, making Freeman the sixth active player to reach the milestone.
