Dustin Pedroia

Dustin Pedroia is an America second baseman on the Boston Red Sox.

Pedroia debuted with Boston in 2006, but did not play enough games to disqualify him from competing for Rookie of the Year in 2007, which he won. He was an instrumental part of the Red Sox World Series run in the same year. He sent the Sox past the Indians in the ALCS with 5 RBIs in Game 7. He then led off the World Series with a HR. His impressive performance in the playoffs was even more notable when it was revealed that he had played the entire postseason with a cracked bone in his hand.
