Polanco went 0-for-2 with two walks, a stolen base and a run in a 4-3 loss to the Giants on Saturday.
Polanco got it done with some classic small ball Saturday, showing solid plate discipline and recording a rare steal during one of his trips on the basepaths. The veteran has progressively crawled out of a deep hole at the plate over the course of the second half of the season, with Saturday's production pushing his post-All-Star-break slash line to .269/.358/.529 across 120 plate appearances. Despite the quiet night from a power perspective Saturday, Polanco has also shown some welcome pop during that span, knocking 13 of his 28 hits for extra bases while driving in 18 runs.
