Freeman, however, proved his mettle by hitting a powerful home run, seemingly destined to clear the left field fence.\n\nIn an epic display of skill and reflexes, Braves outfielder Mauricio Dubon made an incredible catch to rob Freeman of the home run. The highlight reel play kept Freeman from a two-run home run, potentially altering the momentum of the game and even the series.
