ATLANTA — A double CONGRATS is in order for Braves star Freddie Freeman: Two more little sluggers are on the way!

Freeman’s wife, Chelsea, announced Thursday on Instagram that the couple is expecting twins.

They are already parents to a son, Charlie, who was born in 2016.

Chelsea Freeman posted a sweet picture of two onsies that read “prayed for one, blessed with two.” She added hashtags about infertility to the post.

The twins are due in early 2021.

Freddie Freeman battled a COVID-19 infection in July but has since recovered.

Freeman will not be the only Atlanta sports star with twins. Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan and his wife are parents to Marshall and Johnny, who were born in 2018.

Former UGA quarterback Matt Stafford and his wife Kelly are also parents to twins. Chandler and Sawyer were born in 2016.
