Through 11 regular-season games, the Los Angeles Dodgers have stormed out to an 8-3 record with one of the deepest lineups in all of baseball. Leading the offensive charge has been Cody Bellinger, who has posted historic numbers during the span.
In 51 trips to the plate, the 23-year-old leads the Majors in a plethora of categories, including runs scored (18), hits (20), home runs (seven), RBI (19) and slugging percentage (978).
Bellinger has set many records and recently became only the third player in MLB history to accumulate at least six home runs and 16 RBI in his team’s first six games, joining Eddie Mathews and Alex Rodriguez.
