The Dodgers’ Kiké Hernández throws to second base to complete a double play to close out Game 6 of the World Series. Kiké Hernández agreed to a one-year, $4.5-million deal with the Dodgers Thursday, with the popular utilityman taking to his Instagram account to announce his return. The 34-year-old Hernández hit .203 with an on-base percentage of .255 and .366 slugging percentage in 256 regular season plate appearances, with 10 home runs in 92 games last season. In 103 career playoff games, Hernández carries a .826 on-base plus slugging percentage, a .272 batting average and a .486 slugging percentage. Muncy, whose current deal was set to expire after the 2026 season, is the Dodgers’ longest-tenured player and enters his ninth season with the team.
