Ruiz went 2-for-4 with two solo homers in Thursday's loss to the Phillies.
Ruiz launched a solo shot off Zack Wheeler in the fifth inning to put Washington on the board and then came right back with a second homer off Orion Kerkering in the seventh, though his monster effort would fall well short as Philadelphia cruised to a 13-3 win. It marked the first two-homer game for the catcher this season, and he's batting .295 in August with three homers, seven RBI and seven runs scored. Ruiz has also hit safely in three straight games.
