Homers, walks three times in loss Pederson went 1-for-1 with a solo home run and three walks in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Angels.

Impact Pederson opened the game by taking Ryan Johnson deep for his seventh leadoff homer and 22nd long ball of the season. It was his fifth home run over his last 15 games, prompting Los Angeles to pitch around his hot bat and walk him in each of his final three plate appearances. The strategy paid off, as Texas managed only two runs in the loss. Pederson is now one homer shy of matching his highest single-season total since 2020. Through 108 games this season, he owns an .854 OPS

Powers Texas to victory Pederson went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 2-1 win over the Orioles.

Impact Pederson supplied all of the offense Texas needed in this low-scoring victory. After Elias Diaz opened the sixth with a single and Nicky Lopez was out on a sacrifice bunt, Pederson jumped on Baz's first pitch and launched a two-run homer to right field, turning a 1-0 deficit into a 2-1 lead. It was Pederson's 21st homer of the season, and the veteran is now batting .252 with an .846 OPS through 351 plate appearances.
