Lopez is the Miami Marlins’ shortstop. Through June 26, he had 107 hits, 10 more than any other hitter in MLB. His average of .337 was the best in baseball by .001 over Tampa Bay’s Yandy Diaz. Only two players have more doubles than his 21, and he has 16 steals and has struck out only 48 times.

I just needed Devo to pick me.
Devon White and Dave Stewart were at my elementary school in Etobicoke about a month after winning the World Series in 1993, and my baseball-mad nine-year-old self could barely believe he was in the same room as two real-life Blue Jays.
