Whit Merrifield Steals Three Bases Friday
2 years agoToronto Blue Jays outfielder Whit Merrifield could not be stopped on the base paths in Friday's 4-0 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates, as he swiped three bases. In addition to running wild, Merrifield went 2-for-4 at the plate with a double and a run scored. The 34-year-old veteran still hasn't cleared the fences for a home run this year, but he's hitting a strong .292 (26-for-89) with eight doubles, 10 RBI, four stolen bases and 10 runs scored in 100 plate appearances in his first 25 games played for Toronto. In his last 11 games, he's gone 10-for-38 (.263) with four doubles, three RBI and two stolen bases. Although Merrifield isn't quite as good as he was in his prime in Kansas City, he can still rack up useful counting stats with the Blue Jays.
