FACTS/FLUKES: Bellinger, Story, Happ, Anderson, Marquez

No stopping Bellinger ... When Cody Bellinger (1B, LA) was called up in late April, his stint with the Dodgers was expected to be brief. He had other ideas, though, and has since established himself as a fixture in the lineup, and one of the top hitters in all of baseball. Is this level of performance legit?
