Mini bio
How it started.
Born in San Juan, Kiké grew up around Puerto Rican baseball. His father scouted for the Pirates, and Kiké worked as a bat boy with Caguas, where he met Alex Cora. Houston drafted him in the sixth round in 2009. He reached the majors in 2014 and joined the Dodgers after that season.
October moments.
His three-homer night in the 2017 NLCS helped send Los Angeles to the World Series. He won a championship with the Dodgers in 2020, played for Boston from 2021 to 2023, then returned to Los Angeles. More World Series titles followed in 2024 and 2025. Fans know him for covering positions across the field and delivering in the postseason.
A hobby to share.
While injured, he returned to collecting cards and built PoKikémon around opening packs. In an August 2026 interview, he described how Pokémon brought back childhood memories and gave him something to enjoy with his daughter. Their shared interests include Disney and My Little Pony cards, too.
