Racks up four hits in win Pederson went 4-for-6 with a three-run home run, an additional RBI and two additional runs scored in Saturday's win over Philadelphia.
Impact Aside from the homer -- blasted off shortstop Ronald Torreyes, who recorded the final five outs for the Phillies -- it's safe to say this was one of Pederson's best offensive showings of his career, and he is quickly settling at the top of the order for Atlanta. Since debuting for the team earlier this month, the former Cubs and Dodgers outfielder has gone 9-for-32 with two homers, eight RBI and four runs scored.

He'll remain atop the order while starting in right field in Sunday's series finale.

Homers in team debut Pederson went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run Saturday in Atlanta's 9-0 win over Tampa Bay.
Impact Batting out of the leadoff spot in his team debut, Pederson flied out and grounded out in his first two at-bats, but he played a key part in Atlanta's game-breaking six-run fourth inning. His two-run blast off Josh Fleming was one of four extra-base hits in the inning for Atlanta. Given that the lefty-hitting Pederson was setting the table against a southpaw in Fleming, the outfielder looks like he'll be given a full-time look in the leadoff role for his new team after being dealt by the Cubs.

Leading off in first Atlanta start Pederson will lead off and play right field against the Rays on Saturday.
Impact Pederson didn't join his new team soon enough to start Friday's contest, but Saturday's lineup makes it clear he'll play a key role for his new team in the second half. The Atlanta lineup is of course not the same with Ronald Acuna (knee) out for the year, but the team still has a few big bats behind him who could help him score plenty of runs as long as he remains in the leadoff spot.
