Joc Pederson got the scoring started in Game 3 of the World Series on Friday night with a solo home run in the third.
Pederson was batting with two outs in the bottom of the third inning against Boston Red Sox starter Rick Porcello. He took a hanging changeup and blasted it into the right field bullpen.

That was Pederson’s second home run of the postseason after he hit 25 in the regular season. Justin Turner followed things up with a double, though the Dodgers did not score any more runs in the inning.
The Red Sox lead the series 2-0.
