JJ Bleday hits first career home run

JJ Bleday hit a solo home run off Reds' starter, Luis Castillo, in the fourth inning on Wednesday. It was his lone hit in four at-bats during the 5-3 loss.

Fantasy Impact:

The long ball was the first career home run for the rookie playing in his fifth career game. Bleday has three extra-base hits and a steal during his first week in the majors while hitting in the middle of the Marlins lineup. He should get plenty of playing time over the rest of the season.
