Andy Pages had a frustrating start to the 2025 season with the Dodgers.
After a promising rookie season in 2024, Pages was batting just .159 over his first 20 games of the season. His 22 strikeouts in 63 at-bats were dreary, especially with the Dodgers sporting a serious lack of depth in the outfield.
Pages had no choice but to turn things around, and through the help of reigning Home Run Derby champion Teoscar Hernández, he did just that.

The Los Angeles Times’ Jack Harris reported that Dodgers co-hitting coach Aaron Bates noticed a friendship blossoming between the two outfielders and sought out Hernández to pass down advice and support to Pages.
