Slugs second homer, steals bag Ruf went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a stolen base Wednesday against the Padres.
Impact Ruf was in the lineup in place of Alex Dickerson with lefty Blake Snell on the mound. He launched his second home run of the season, both of which have come against southpaws. He'll likely continue to get his at-bats primarily when he has the handedness advantage, meaning Dickerson should see the majority of playing time in left field as the season wears on.

Launches first long ball Monday Ruf went 1-for-1 with a solo home run and a walk in a 3-2 win over the Padres on Monday.
Impact Ruf opened up the second inning by mashing a changeup deep to center field to put the Giants up 1-0. The long ball was his first hit of the campaign. Ruf was lifted in favor of Alex Dickerson in the sixth inning, and the combination of his platoon splits and his defensive limitations will likely continue to limit his at-bats.
