The Los Angeles Dodgers activated star first baseman Freddie Freeman from the paternity list on Tuesday and optioned outfielder/infielder Ryan Ward to Triple-A Oklahoma City.
Also, left-hander Blake Snell will begin his rehab stint Wednesday by pitching for Class A Ontario. He has been sidelined with fatigue in his pitching shoulder.
Freeman, 36, missed two games while away for Sunday's birth of his fourth child and first daughter. Freddie and wife Chelsea announced the birth of London Rosemary Joy Freeman on Tuesday.
Freeman is batting .296 with three home runs and 14 RBIs over 20 games this season. The nine-time All-Star is in his 17th season, fifth with the Dodgers after 12 with the Atlanta Braves.
Snell, 33, will start for the Tower Buzzers when they visit San Jose. He was bothered by left shoulder issues last season as well when he went 5-4 with a 2.35 ERA in 11 starts in his first season with the Dodgers.
Ward, 28, made his big-league debut on Sunday and went 2-for-6 with an RBI in two games for the Dodgers. He has played in 696 minor league games and was Pacific Coast League MVP last season when he hit 36 home runs with 122 RBIs in 143 games.
