Teoscar Hernández: On Fire in October, Leading the Dodgers
Dominican Teoscar Hernández continues to shine in the postseason, extending his impressive offensive performance. The Dodgers outfielder has maintained a streak of eight consecutive games with a hit, the longest in all of Major League Baseball. This streak, which began in the 2024 Championship Series, has solidified him as a key piece in the Los Angeles lineup.
During this streak, Hernández has been key in his team’s offense, showing outstanding numbers:
- 36 plate appearances
- 3 home runs and 5 extra-base hits
- 11 RBIs
- .382 batting average
- .389 OBP
- 1.095 OPS
The “Chino” keeps his bat hot in October, solidifying himself as one of the most important players in the Los Angeles offense in crucial moments.
Yamamoto Shines on the Mound
Japanese opener Yoshinobu Yamamoto also had an outstanding performance from the mound, being fundamental in the Dodgers’ classification. Showing composure in the moments of greatest pressure, he worked for seven innings, making 113 pitches and coming out victorious from a complicated situation with bases loaded in the sixth inning.
With their brilliant performance and the offensive support led by Hernandez, the Dodgers defeated the Cincinnati Reds 8-4, securing their spot in the National League Division Series, where they will face the Philadelphia Phillies.
