Andy Pages propelled the Los Angeles Dodgers past the San Francisco Giants with a crucial two-run homer in the fifth inning, turning a 3-2 deficit into a 4-3 lead. The hit was especially meaningful as it occurred on Father's Day, a moment Pages dedicated to his father, whom he hasn't seen in two years. Their close bond has been strained by time and distance, yet Pages often communicates with him despite challenges caused by electrical outages in Cuba. He expressed eagerness to share the joyous news with his father afterward.
It was a home run hit for my dad, who I haven't seen in a really well in a long time.
He's the one that helped me in my baseball career. It’s a really emotional, really special moment to hit a home run in that situation.
I'm going to call my dad later and talk to him about the home run.
Great to come through in that moment, but it was a special moment on Father's Day.
