El Modena High leads O.C. cheers for Freddie Freeman’s NL MVP win https://ift.tt/36toTfT

Freddie Freeman of the Atlanta Braves was named the National League MVP on Thursday night, Nov. 12, and the news was cheered in many areas of Orange County — where he’s still remembered as being Freddie Freeman of El Modena High, Class of 2007.

Here was some of the reaction on Twitter …

This also reminded us that Freeman was the Register’s Orange County player of the year in 2007. (Here is a link to the story.)  Spoiler alert: The Braves had just drafted him and were talking about moving him to first base instead of making him a pitcher.

How did that turn out?

Maybe this will give you a clue …

All the feels! @FreddieFreeman5 | @Braves pic.twitter.com/Onq7xb7b8o

A new kind of pollution — wildfire smoke — can cause health issues https://ift.tt/3ipQ6VD

It’s a domino effect Southern Californians know all too well: When there’s extreme heat, there are fires. And when there are fires, there’s smoke.
