Dodgers All-Star Game profile: Joc Pederson

After a whirlwind Monday that helped put Joc Pederson in the national conversation, here is a look at the Dodgers All-Star outfielder heading into Tuesday night in Cincinnati.

What went right

Pederson hit .230/.364/.487 while playing stellar defense in center field. He is 30th in the majors with a .368 wOBA and 23rd in wRC+ (140).

Pederson hit 20 home runs before July 1, joining Wally Berger (22 for the 1930 Boston Braves) and Albert Puols (21 for the 2001 Cardinals) as the only rookies in National League history to do so.
