Dodgers: Joc Pederson Shares Power Bat with Max Muncy

Joc Pederson put on a display with the bat on Friday night at Dodger Stadium, however it came with a bit of a caveat. It wasn’t his bat.

The keen eye may have noticed it early, but Joc Pederson was using Max Muncy’s “MaxBat” when he cranked 2 home runs against the Nationals on Friday. Joc on the decision.

I picked up Max Muncy’s bat – he’s been swinging it well – it’s got a lot of pop, so I just went with his bat. I guess the rest took care of itself. I like that bat right now.

Continuing a recent theme of teammates helping each other with bats; as where Kiké Hernandez prepped Justin Turner’s bat on the night of JT’s 3 home run game, Joc picked up the Muncy special for 2 bombs.

That’s teamwork.
