Miller Park has long held a reputation as a hitter's park, but Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman is no fan of the stadium.

Over the weekend, Freeman told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, "I can hardly see the ball. I think it was a ball in the first [inning], double play, and I almost missed it because I couldn't see the ball until it got on me. It's just dark."

"And they shot off those fireworks, and the fog just got trapped in there, it was hard to see."

"I'm just glad it's three games and out. I don't see the ball well, at all... I feel like Little League fields are lit better than this. Obviously they have no problem because their guys are hitting. I guess you get used to it."

Freeman has hit .254/.346/.567 with six home runs in 19 career games at Miller Park.
