19 photos of Joc Pederson's awesome pearl necklace to celebrate Joctober

The fashion statement sweeping the nation!

Joc Pederson was with the Chicago Cubs to start 2021, a former Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder with some pretty good seasons before heading to the North Side.

But it was a midseason trade to the Atlanta Braves that has led to “Joctober,” with the outfielder bringing some swagger and timely hitting to a team making a run … along with a string of pearls.

There’s no definitive answer for why Pederson is wearing the pearls in every game he’s played since late September, but it’s the fantastic fashion statement that’s sweeping the nation.

So let’s celebrate Joctober with some photos of the pearls!
