Freeman (wrist) hit a ground-rule double in the first inning of Tuesday's Grapefruit League opener, Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

The hard-hit ball off Baltimore's Mike Wright in Freeman's first spring at-bat was enough to convince manager Fredi Gonzalez that "Freeman's fine." Atlanta still plans to be cautious with Freeman and his troublesome wrist, limiting him to two or three at-bats every other day for the time being. Freeman took live batting practice Saturday for the first time since last season, following two "coach-pitch" batting sessions.
