What a night. Corey Seager was a one man wrecking machine. He blasted three home runs to lead the Dodgers to a 4-2 victory, and even received his first curtain call of his career. Per Cary Osborne at Dodger Insider:
“That’s fun, that put a smile on my face,” Seager said of the atmosphere in the dugout after he hit home run No. 3 — a liner over the short fence in left field off Atlanta reliever Hunter Cervenka. “That’s something you really enjoy and soak in.”
His homers marks the first time a Dodger rookie has hit three dingers in one game since Don Demeter in 1959.
