Dodgers outfield prospect Joc Pederson hit a two-run, opposite-field home run in the seventh inning of Friday's 5-0 win over the White Sox. It was his only hit in two at-bats.
Pederson, who fell in the top 40 in both Baseball America's and MLB.com's preseason prospect list, doesn't have a clear path to playing time with four talented outfielders ahead of him in Los Angeles. He received his first exposure to Double-A pitching last season, hitting .278/.381/.497 with 22 home runs, 58 RBI and 31 stolen bases in 439 at-bats with Double-A Chattanooga.
