Andy Pages will forever be linked to the Los Angeles Dodgers\u2019 2025 World Series title for his game-saving catch in the winner-take-all matchup against the Toronto Blue Jays at Rogers Centre.<\/p>\n

Pages, who had just replaced Tommy Edman in center field, traveled 121 feet to track down a ball off the bat of Ernie Clement with two outs and the bases loaded, sending the game to extra innings. Pages used his length to reach for the ball over Kik\u00e9 Hern\u00e1ndez and collided with him in the process<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 25-year-old made a similar catch in the Dodgers\u2019 6-3 win over the Texas Rangers on Saturday, but was able to narrowly avoid a collision with Teoscar Hern\u00e1ndez. Hern\u00e1ndez appeared to call for the ball before Pages cut in front of him to make the catch.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s his,\u201d Hern\u00e1ndez said after the game when asked whose ball it was. \u201cI was playing a little closer to the line. You know, it\u2019s one of those where I can get it, he can get it, but it\u2019s definitely his ball.\u201d<\/p>\n

The SportsNet LA broadcast caught Pages and Hern\u00e1ndez playfully going back and forth with each other in the dugout over who had priority to make the catch. So much so that they even asked Dodgers manager Dave Roberts for his input.<\/p>\n

\u201cI mean, shoot, yeah, exactly,\u201d Roberts jokingly said after the game when asked if Pages has claimed ownership of the left-center field gap. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe got to make sure we clean that up. Because it\u2019s funny when the play is made, but we got to make sure that the communication is clear.\u201d<\/p>\n

Andy Pages off to hot start<\/h2>\n

Along with playing stellar defense in center field, Pages has been one of the Dodgers\u2019 most productive bats through the first two weeks of the regular season.<\/p>\n

He enters play Sunday leading the National League in total hits (23), RBI (17), batting average (.442), on-base percentage (.482), slugging percentage (.750), on-base plus slugging (1.232) and bWAR (1.6).<\/p>\n

Pages was named NL Player of the Week for March 30-April 5<\/a> after going a combined 13-for-20 during the stretch. He became the first Dodgers player with at least five multi-hit games in a row since Shohei Ohtani accomplished the feat from April 3-8, 2024.<\/p>\n
