LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles Dodgers All-Star first baseman Freddie Freeman had surgery Thursday on his right ankle.

The team said the procedure involved debridement and removal of loose bodies by Dr. Kenneth Jung in Los Angeles.

Freeman is expected to be ready by spring training.

Injury Occurred Late in Regular Season

The 35-year-old Freeman hurt his ankle on Sept. 26 while running out a ground ball and played on it during the Dodgers’ run to the World Series championship over the New York Yankees.

Although he was limited at times, Freeman played in 13 of the team’s 16 postseason games. He was named World Series MVP after becoming the first player to hit a home run in each of the first four games of the Series.
