Manager Don Mattingly dismissed the notion before Saturday's 9-5 win. But Seager then slugged his first Major League home run, went 4-for-4 with a double, stolen base, walk, three runs scored and three RBIs, still showing no signs of pennant-stretch panic that would be expected from a 21-year-old. He's reached base in nine consecutive plate appearances, making him the first Dodgers rookie to do so since team moved to Los Angeles in 1958.
Seager is the first player 21 or younger to go 4-for-4 (or better) with a home run and stolen base in the same game since Ken Griffey Jr.
