Ruiz went 2-for-4 with a double in Thursday's loss to the Mets.

It was a great start to the season for the young backstop, although Ruiz wasn't able to turn the knocks into production as the Nationals only managed six hits and one run on the day. Ruiz could be in line for a big first full campaign in the majors after slashing .310/.377/.616 with 21 homers and a 30:33 BB:K in 72 games at Triple-A in 2021.
