Ryan Bliss - Opens scoring with homer Bliss went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 6-0 win over the Mets. Impact Bliss opened the scoring in the second inning, with the long ball being his first major-league hit since June 22. The infielder primarily looks to be a backup to Jorge Polanco at second base, so there's no guarantee Bliss will get steady at-bats even against southpaws moving forward. For the season, Bliss is slashing .222/.290/397 with two homers, nine RBI, 10 runs scored and five stolen bases over 71 plate appearances in the majors, in addition to a hearty .846 OPS over 62 contests at Triple-A Tacoma.
