The childhood home of San Francisco Giants outfielder Joc Pederson sold for $4.138 million on Aug. 24.

The 2,390-square-foot rancher located in Palo Alto’s Green Gables neighborhoodhad been the family’s home for nearly 30 years and is where the two-time Major League Baseball World Series champion and All-Star player cultivated his love of the sport.

Pederson lived in the house with his parents and three siblings from about age 1 until age 18, when the Los Angeles Dodgers chose him in the 2010 MLB Draft straight out of Palo Alto High School. He made his major league debut as an outfielder with the Dodgers in 2014, where he played for seven seasons. He then played with the Chicago Cubs and Atlanta Braves before joining his hometown team, the San Francisco Giants, in 2022.

Built in 1950, the single-story, four-bedroom home was a regular haunt for neighborhood kids during Pederson’s school days. The cul-de-sac in front of the home had a spray-painted baseball diamond where the Pederson siblings and their friends would regularly play ball.
