Just one year removed from breaking the Los Angeles Dodgers record for most leadoff home runs in a single season, Joc Pederson has again etched his name in franchise lore.
Pederson started Wednesday’s game with a line drive into the right field stands at Petco Park, giving him nine home runs this season out of the leadoff spot that now the most in Dodgers history.
It broke Pederson’s previous record of eight set last year. That season, he surpassed Davey Lopes’ long-standing record of seven leadoff home runs hit in 1979.
