Joc Pederson: Dodgers Interested In More Andre Ethier Bats
Robert Hanashiro/USA TODAY SportsWhen Joc Pederson was breaking into the Majors, he was part of a Los Angeles Dodgers outfield that included a veteran, but still productive, Andre Ethier. After being teammates for parts of four seasons, Ethier retired after 2017.
Although their time together on the field came to an end, Ethier and Pederson have remained close. Ethier returned to Dodger Stadium last year to be recognized in an on-field retirement ceremony, and he used that opportunity to poke fun at Pederson.
He surmised if his former understudy could have success in today’s MLB, there was still hope to return. Now Ethier can take some claim to Pederson’s recent hot streak.
