Freddie Freeman ran into himself Thursday.

Sort of.

The Braves first baseman was spending the evening with his family trick-or-treating in his neighborhood when they came across a youngster in a familiar costume. The boy was dressed in Freeman’s Atlanta Braves uniform, complete with name and number on the jersey.

The scene - where Freeman asks the boy ‘Are you me for Halloween?’ - was captured by Freeman’s wife and posted on social media. He is the video.

After the somewhat stunned trick-or-treater recognizes Freeman, they pose for a picture.
