Pederson started in left field and went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 2-1 loss to Houston.

Pederson led off the contest with a home run for the second consecutive game, but that would account for all of the offense the Dodgers could muster against Justin Verlander. The 26-year-old has really come into his own this season, slashing .261/.334/.539 with 17 homers and 44 RBI over 103 games. Pederson figures to see a healthy amount of starts versus righties, but he may cede a start or two per week to the bevy of other outfield options the club has at its disposal.
