Dodger fans win World Series tickets after Chelsea Freeman giveaway
LOS ANGELES - Two lucky Dodgers fans won World Series tickets after a giveaway from Chelsea Freeman, wife of Freddie Freeman.
After more than 60,000 people commented to enter the giveaway, Chelsea Freeman announced the winner Wednesday.
"You enter these things, and you don't think you're going to win," said Amber Berkery, the lucky winner. She and her husband Colton won two tickets to a World Series game. And, the announcement couldn't have come with better timing.

"Today our water heater broke," Amber said. "So I'm on the phone with our home warranty filing a claim and I get a message from Chelsea. This morning she sent me the message, and I was shrieking because it was unreal."
For Berkery, the prize is just the latest "blessing" her and her family have received this year, the others being a new home and a newborn baby.
The Dodgers clinched their eighth World Series title in New York Wednesday night, meaning there will be no Game 6, and the Berkerys won't be able to go to the game. But for them, they'd rather the Boys in Blue bring home a trophy.
"I'm just a fan, I want them to win at the end of day," said Amber.
"A Dodger World Series win is a World Series win," said Colton. "Either way it's a good thing."
According to Chelsea Freeman's Instagram story, the winner would get $5,000 cash.
