Homers, drives in two in win Merrifield went 2-for-3 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Saturday's win over the Diamondbacks.

Impact Merrifield singled to lead off the bottom of the second and went on to score the first of two runs for Toronto in the inning. He then came right back in his next at-bat and crushed a hanging changeup from Zac Gallen over the left field wall to lead off the fourth, putting the Blue Jays back on top 3-2. The second baseman has been highly efficient at the plate this month and now has recorded two hits in five of his last seven games. Four of his six home runs on the season have also come in July.

Four RBI in blowout win Merrifield went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run, an additional RBI and an additional run scored in Friday's 12-2 win over Detroit.

Impact Merrifield gave Toronto a 2-1 lead with an RBI single in the fourth and extended the Blue Jays' advantage to 12-2 with a three-run shot in the ninth. After hitting just two home runs over his first 78 games this season, Merrifield has connected on three long balls over the past two days. Overall, the veteran is slashing .286/.342/.395 with 19 stolen bases, 36 runs scored and 38 RBI across 322 plate appearances, and while his recent power surge is unsustainable, Merrifield is still a valuable offensive player for Toronto.

Swats two homers Thursday Merrifield went 2-for-4 with a pair of solo home runs in Game 2 of Thursday's doubleheader sweep of the White Sox.

Impact Merrifield entered the day with just two homers over 77 contests, and he went 0-for-4 with a walk in an extra-innings win in the matinee. However, the versatile veteran showed in the nightcap that his power isn't entirely sapped, swatting a pair of solo shots to left-center field. Merrifield has never been a big homer producer, though he swatted between 10 and 19 long balls in each of his five full MLB campaigns prior to this season. He has some work to do to reach the double-digit homer mark in 2023, though he's been a useful offensive producer in other ways, compiling a .284/.341/.384 slash line with 19 thefts over 317 plate appearances.
