MLBoyfriend: Week 20: Cody Bellinger

I chose Cody Bellinger to be my MLBoyfriend on Monday simply because it was bizarre that I hadn't done so earlier. He didn't have a particularly good week last week, but he has been having an amazing season--especially in the spring.

Then, life got in the way, and I didn't get around to writing this post until tonight which is Thursday. I'm glad I waited because he made a good case for himself just a couple of hours ago: Cody Bellinger became the first player to hit 40 home runs this season. He did it style with a monster, three-run blast.

Not entirely coincidentally, this happened:

Cody Bellinger is the new MLB home run leader, setting a career high with his 40th of the year. The Dodgers are also the first team since at least 1908 to hit 4+ homers in four straight games. https://t.co/46MuOs89N0

I don't really have much to add to that except to say that I really enjoyed doing my "photo research" on Cody Bellinger. So, now, I'm just going to post some pics of Bellinger with little-to-no comment.

Cody Bellinger is really pretty.

He also has a really pretty swing.

Bellinger is an outfielder,
and I'm a sucker for pics of leaping catches.

It took two security guards to pry this teen girl off Bellinger
after she got onto the field and hugged him. Even though she
was arrested, she said it was the best day of her life.
She is my new hero.

I mean... come on...

Tired of looking at pics of Cody Bellinger? Here are a couple of GIFs.

He looks like a movie star playing a baseball player.

I have no idea what's going on here, but I like it all.

I didn't realize how many L.A. Dodgers have been my MLBoyfriends. This gives me the chance to post some pics of Cody with his predecessors.

Cody Bellinger is one of only two players likely to win the National League MVP Award. The other is another former MLBoyfriend, Christian Yelich. Shall we look at some pictures of them together?
