Triolo went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, a triple and an additional run scored in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Rockies.

Triolo launched a two-run homer in the third inning before adding a triple and scoring again in the fifth. While it was the 27-year-old's first long ball since June 19, he's hitting .303 with six extra-base hits, five RBI, 11 runs scored and three stolen bases through 20 games in August. For the season, he's still slashing a modest .205/.229/.322 with four homers, 15 RBI, 23 runs scored and eight steals across 237 plate appearances.

Vaughn is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Giants.

Vaughn will get a well-earned day off Saturday against San Francisco as Jake Bauers fills in at first base. Vaughn had started 27 consecutive games at first base, slashing .320/.383/.563 with seven home runs and a 9:16 BB:K during that stretch. Although he's expected to remain Milwaukee's primary first baseman, off days could come more frequently as Bauers, and eventually Rhys Hoskins (thumb), are added to the fold.

Bernabel will bat second and play first base Saturday against the Pirates.

Bernabel was struck in the face by a baseball during pregame infield drills Thursday. He was scratched from Thursday's lineup and kept on the bench Friday. However, Bernabel has been given the green light to start Saturday's contest. He has eight hits in his last 22 at-bats (.364) with a 3:1 BB:K.

Horwitz went 2-for-5 with a solo home run, a double, two RBI and two runs scored Friday against the Rockies.

Horwitz smacked an RBI double in the second inning and followed that up with his fifth home run of the season four frames later. He hasn't hit for much power this season, as he has a .132 ISO across 303 plate appearances, but Horwitz now has four extra-base hits across his last five starts. Horwitz is putting together a respectable second half, as he's hitting .300 with four homers, 20 RBI and 17 runs scored across 31 games since the All-Star break.

The Brewers activated Bauers (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list Friday.

Bauers has been sidelined since just after the All-Star break with a left shoulder impingement but is ready to go after homering three times in five rehab games. The 29-year-old will likely operate primarily as a reserve bat.

Bernabel (face) remains out of the lineup for Friday's game in Pittsburgh.

Bernabel had to be scratched from Thursday's lineup versus the Dodgers after being struck in the face with a throw during pregame infield drills. His removal from the lineup that day was deemed precautionary, but Colorado will hold him out for at least one additional start. Orlando Arcia will cover first base in Bernabel's stead.

Contreras went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Thursday's 7-4 win over the Rays.

Contreras went deep in the seventh inning for his second homer in as many games. The 33-year-old has bounced back well after missing time with a bruised right foot, going 7-for-18 (.389) over four contests since he returned to the lineup. On the year, he has a .261/.345/.455 slash line with 18 homers, 68 RBI, 60 runs scored, four stolen bases and 29 doubles over 118 games.

Freeman went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Thursday's 9-5 win over Colorado.

The All-Star first baseman extended his hitting streak to six games Thursday, and the homer was his 16th of the year. Freeman slumped a bit back in June and the early part of July, but he's found his groove at the plate over the past month or so. Across his last 33 games (143 plate appearances), Freeman is slashing .323/.399/.540 with six round trippers, nine doubles, 25 RBI and 19 runs scored.

Bernabel was scratched from the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Dodgers after being struck in the face with a throw during pregame infield drills.

The Rockies are saying Bernabel's removal from the lineup is precautionary, so it sounds like he'll have a good chance to be back in action Friday in Pittsburgh. Kyle Farmer has moved from the designated-hitter spot to first base, while Hunter Goodman has entered the lineup at DH.

Hernandez (elbow) went 2-for-3 with a single and an RBI double in his first rehab game with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday.

Hernandez got the start at designated hitter in what was his first game action since he went down with left elbow inflammation in early July. The utility player will need a few more rehab games before rejoining the Dodgers' active roster, perhaps before the end of the month.
