BREAKING: Andy Pages Keeps Hot Streak Alive Against Marlins Outfielder Javier Sanoja

In an electrifying showdown at Dodger Stadium, Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Andy Pages extended his scorching offensive tear, outshining Miami Marlins rookie Javier Sanoja in a commanding 13-2 Dodgers victory on April 30, 2025. Pages’ stellar performance, highlighted by a home run and multiple hits, cemented his status as one of baseball’s rising stars, while Sanoja, despite flashes of potential, couldn’t match the Cuban’s impact in this matchup.

Pages on Fire

Andy Pages, 24, has transformed what seemed like an up-and-down season into a showcase of power and consistency. Since being benched on April 7, Pages has been on a tear, batting .388 with a 1.178 OPS in games played between April 8 and April 30. His performance against the Marlins was another chapter in this resurgence narrative. Pages crushed a home run in the third inning, fueling a Dodgers offensive outburst that left the Marlins reeling.

The Cuban outfielder also notched three hits in the game, extending his hitting streak to five games and marking his third consecutive game with three hits. This effort earned him co-National League Player of the Week honors, shared with teammate Mookie Betts. “Andy’s in an incredible groove right now,” said Dodgers manager Dave Roberts. “His approach at the plate is more mental than mechanical. He’s leaning into his strengths and punishing pitches in the zone.”

Pages, who has outproduced veterans like Teoscar Hernández in recent weeks, has silenced critics who questioned his place in a crowded Dodgers outfield. With prospects like Hyeseong Kim waiting in Triple-A, Pages has proven he belongs in the majors, emerging as a key piece for the Dodgers, who lead the NL West with a 20-10 record.

Sanoja: A Rookie in Progress

On the other side, Javier Sanoja, the 22-year-old Venezuelan outfielder for the Marlins, had a quieter night. While specific hit totals for Sanoja in the game against the Dodgers were not reported, his defensive versatility and recent performances in the minors and majors keep him as an intriguing prospect. Sanoja, who made his MLB debut on September 7, 2024, batted .229 with a .536 OPS in 15 games last season, showcasing his contact skills but limited power.

In the April 30 game, Sanoja likely played in the outfield or batted lower in the order, facing a Dodgers pitching staff led by left-hander James Paxton. Though he couldn’t match Pages’ output, Sanoja has shown glimpses of his potential in recent games. For instance, on April 21 against the Philadelphia Phillies, Sanoja hit his first major-league home run and drove in five runs, a performance that snapped a five-game Marlins losing streak.

Marlins manager Clayton McCullough has praised Sanoja’s adaptability, noting his ability to play outfield and multiple infield positions, including second base, third base, and shortstop. “Javier’s a guy who can do it all,” McCullough said. “His contact and versatility are his biggest strengths, and he’s learning to compete against the best.”

The matchup between Pages and Sanoja highlighted the differences in their current trajectories. Pages, a former elite prospect who overcame labrum surgery in 2023, is capitalizing on his second full season in the majors. His recent hot streak has placed him among the Dodgers’ top offensive contributors, outpacing even superstars like Shohei Ohtani and Freddie Freeman over the past three weeks. His home run against the Marlins was his fourth in a five-game span, and his ability to hit for extra bases (three doubles and a homer in a recent series against the Pirates) has made him a fan favorite.

Sanoja, meanwhile, is in the early stages of his MLB career. Signed as an international free agent in 2019, the Venezuelan has risen quickly through the Marlकारी
