David Freese led off Friday night's NLCS game and added yet another Game 6 home run to his resume

By Eric Chesterton

The Dodgers got out to an early 1-0 lead in NLCS Game 6 against the Brewers on Friday after David Freese hit a leadoff home run off Wade Miley that just kept on carrying right on over the right-center-field wall:

This wasn't the first time Freese hit a home run in a postseason Game 6 -- clutch Game 6 home runs are sort of his thing at this point. In fact, it's not even his first NLCS Game 6 home run at Miller Park. Back in 2011, he helped the Cardinals with a homer against the Brewers:

And, of course it was his walk-off home run in Game 6 of the 2011 World Series that forced a Game 7 and helped the Cardinals to their eventual championship.

If there are any more Game 6's in Freese's future, our deepest sympathies go to whichever pitchers have to face him.
