Max Muncy has been a fringe big leaguer most of his career,but not anymore. Instead, Muncy is becoming more and more of a fan favorite for one of the prestigious teams in baseball, the Los Angeles Dodgers, every time he goes deep.
And it’s happening at a record pace.
The former Keller and Baylor baseball standout set a Dodgers record for quickest player to reach 20 home runs, going deep twice against the Pirates on Tuesday. Muncy reached the 20-mark in just his 183rd at-bat, making him the fastest to get there, according to Elias Sports Bureau research.
