Emerging Los Angeles Dodgers Star Honored For Exceptional Performance

Andy Pages of the Los Angeles Dodgers has been named National League Player of the Week for April 21-27, marking the first time he has received this honor in his career. He shares the award with Eugenio Suarez of the Arizona Diamondbacks. This is also the first time a Dodgers player has earned the recognition during the 2025 season. Last year, three different Dodgers players received the weekly honor a total of five times.

Pages’ exceptional performance during the week included going 13-for-20 (.650) with three doubles, three home runs, six RBI, and one stolen base in five games. His week culminated in a standout performance during the Dodgers’ 9-2 comeback win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday, where he went 4-for-5 with a career-high four RBI.

“Just excited for Andy,” manager Dave Roberts said after the game. “You see the confidence, the joy of just playing, competing. He’s picked us up with some big hits. Really happy for him.”

Teoscar Hernández, who has played a key role in Pages’ recent turnaround, expressed his excitement for the 24-year-old’s success after a challenging start to the season. “Amazing,” Hernández said. “Everybody goes through that. He was going through a tough moment, and now he’s feeling more comfortable at the plate, getting better pitches to hit, more selective. Just enjoying everything that is happening to him.”

Pages has demonstrated remarkable consistency, recording at least three hits in three consecutive games. He achieved a career first with back-to-back three-hit games on Friday and Saturday, and extended that streak with four hits in the series finale against the Pirates.

In 25 games this season, Pages is batting .277/.355/.506 with four doubles, five home runs, and 11 RBI across 93 plate appearances.
