Mervis went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's loss to the Astros.

Mervis connected against Cristian Javier in the second inning for his first career MLB home run. He had six long balls in 24 games at the Triple-A level this season and should continue to develop his power stroke in the majors as he settles in. The rookie is now batting .250 with a .650 OPS across nine games and figures to stick as the team's primary option at first base for the foreseeable future.
