Andy Pages was named co-National League Player of the Week for April 21-27, marking the first time he has received the honor in his career. He was joined by Eugenio Suarez of the Arizona Diamondbacks as co-honors for the award.
This is also the first time that a Los Angeles Dodgers player earned the recognition during the 2025 season. The team had three different players receive the weekly honor for a combined total of five times last year.
Pages went 13-for-20 (.650) with three doubles, three home runs, six RBI and one stolen base in five games over the last week of play.
The stretch concluded with Pages going 4-for-5 with a career-high four RBI in the Dodgers’ 9-2 comeback win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday.
“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 been instrumental to Pages turning his season around, is thrilled for the 24-year-old’s success after struggling to begin the year.
“Amazing,” Hernández began.
“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 recorded at least three hits in three consecutive games. He accomplished a career-first with back-to-back three-hit games on Friday and Saturday, and extended that stretch 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.
Andy Pages not worried about mechanics
Pages attributed his recent stretch to relaxing more at the plate and not worrying about his swing mechanics.
“The team has talked to me and told me to relax, just go out there and play. Things have been working out,” he said through an interpreter.
Pages has also benefited from not focusing on where he is hitting in the Dodgers lineup. “I think it’s definitely helped me mentally, but I’ve kind of stopped focusing on where I’m hitting in the lineup,” Pages said.
“Just focusing on doing the things that I can do, and focusing on myself as opposed to where I’m at in the lineup, where I’m playing or things like that.”
