Cody Bellinger is not the only Dodgers’ player having an impressive start in 2019. Joc Pederson has had a powerful start to his 2019 season. Joc has thirteen home runs in 118 at-bats and while he is a platoon player, he has not let that stop him from blasting home runs at an impressive rate. Cody Bellinger has hit a home run every 9.9 at-bats and by comparison, Joc is hitting a home run every 9.1 AB’s.
Pederson recorded his 100th career home run in Tuesday’s victory over rookie phenom Chris Paddack and his halfway to his career high of 26 home runs which came in his breakout rookie season.
