Three World Series Home Runs

After 29 years of waiting, the Los Angeles Dodgers returned to the World Series in 2017. Facing the Houston Astros, Joc Pederson showed a national audience what Dodgers fans got to see every baseball season.

Had the Dodgers prevailed in winning the World Series, it is likely Pederson would have won the World Series MVP. Pederson led the team in home runs (three) and RBI (five) during the seven-game series. Pederson’s three home runs were the most for a Dodger in a single series since Davey Lopes hit three in 1978.

Pederson came up with one clutch home run after the other. In Game 2 ,with two outs, he tied the game at one all in the fifth, ending a Dodgers hitless streak. In Game 4, Pederson put the game away for good, hitting a three-run home run in the top of the ninth. In Game 6, facing elimination, Pederson hit a solo home run in the seventh to extend the Dodgers to their winning margin of 3-1.
