Seager racks up records in rookie campaign

The 22-year-old Seager will become the Dodgers' 17th Rookie of the Year -- the first since Todd Hollandsworth in 1996 and their first at shortstop -- after a season in which he rewrote much of the franchise record book for first-year players.

His 26 home runs were a Dodgers record for a shortstop, and he set Los Angeles Dodgers rookies marks for hits (193), runs (105) and doubles (40). The 193 hits were the most for a Major League rookie since 2001 (Ichiro Suzuki and Albert Pujols).

The 18th overall pick in the 2012 Draft, Seager was the youngest Dodgers position player named to an NL All-Star team and their first rookie shortstop All-Star since Billy Grabarkewitz in 1970.
