FACTS/FLUKES: Ruiz, Goldschmidt, Lopez, Miley, Friedrich

Ruiz: Gravity alert ... Carlos Ruiz (C, PHI) has been a godsend for the Phillies through the first two months of the season. Without two of their big guns, the club has gotten surprising production from the 33-year-old backstop. Most surprising of all if the 7 HRs -- only two shy of his career high for an entire season.
