Blake Dunn's pivotal two-run double in the eighth inning propelled the Cincinnati Reds to a 2-0 victory over the San Francisco Giants, marking his third hit of the season. Dunn, who had struggled to make an impact in his early MLB appearances, has shown promise since being named the Reds' Minor League Player of the Year for 2023. He became the first Red to score in each of his first four career games since Vada Pinson in 1958.

Drafted in the 15th round of the 2021 draft, Dunn made waves in the minors, finishing with a .332 batting average alongside impressive power and speed—demonstrated by his 15 home runs and 35 stolen bases in 2023. His potential has drawn comparisons to T.J. Friedl, showcasing a bright future for this young outfielder.
