Oh dear, you're right. Where do that initial comma and space come from?
I guess BibLaTeX inserts them automatically? Does that happen in all
styles?
>From what I can see, Pandoc does not implicitly insert punctuation like
this:

renders as
As Fenner (2012, cf. sec. 2) showed ...
Can you turn off the automatic addition of commas in BibLaTeX by setting
something in the preamble? If so, would that be the right solution
here? It might be easier to remove punctuation on the LaTeX side than
to get other backends to duplicate LaTeX's implicit punctuating
behavior.
Best,
