OCTOBER HERO: Kiké Hernández Hits Historic 17th Playoff Homer, Closes on 'Mr. October'...

Kiké Hernández added a 17th postseason home run, moving him closer to Reggie Jackson's all-time playoff record of 18. The Dodgers infielder has become one of baseball's most dangerous October performers, delivering power at critical moments throughout his career. Jackson earned his "Mr. October" nickname by dominating the playoffs across decades, and Hernández is now within striking distance of that historic standard—a remarkable achievement given the rarity of sustained playoff success across multiple teams and seasons.
