  • Brice Turang 2B | MIL

    Brewers' Brice Turang: Picks up pair of doubles

    Turang went 3-for-4 with two doubles and two RBI in Saturday's win over the Rockies.

    The second baseman delivered a standout performance in Saturday's win, driving in the game's first run with an RBI single in the first inning and later tacking on an RBI double in the fifth inning -- both off Antonio Senzatela. Turang is putting together a strong third MLB season, highlighted by a scorching 15-game stretch during which he's slashing .400/.413/.533 with six extra-base hits and 10 RBI.

  • Ketel Marte 2B | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte: Snaps hitless streak

    Marte went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Saturday's 8-7 loss to the Marlins.

    Marte's three-run shot in the fourth inning snapped an 0-for-11 streak, his longest hitless stretch of the season. With the home run, he became the third player in Diamondbacks history to drive in 500 runs for the club. Marte's been remarkably consistent in 2025, which factors into him being atop the All-Star voting at second base in the NL.

  • Cardinals' Brendan Donovan: Leads off game with long ball

    Donovan went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, two walks, two total runs and two total RBI in Saturday's 9-6 victory versus the Guardians.

    Donovan set the tone for the high-scoring matchup when he led off the contest with a 391-foot homer. The versatile veteran added a sacrifice fly in the sixth inning while also drawing multiple free passes for just the third time this season. Donovan has been slumping of late, batting just .158 (6-for-38) over his past 10 games, but he's still hitting a strong .302 on the campaign.

  • Hye Seong Kim 2B | LAD

    Dodgers' Hyeseong Kim: Could see more playing time

    Kim could see more starts at second base going forward now that Tommy Edman is healthy enough to play in the outfield, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reported Saturday.

    Kim had been part of the starting lineup in four of the Dodgers' past 13 games, making three starts in center field and one at second base. However, Edman's minor ankle injury is healed enough to allow him to play the outfield, which should open up more opportunities for Kim at the keystone -- the position he's had his most starts at this season. The 26-year-old rookie is slashing .372/.410/.538 with two home runs and six stolen bases in 83 plate appearances. Kim is batting eighth and playing second base Saturday against the Royals.

  • Tommy Edman 2B | LAD

    Dodgers' Tommy Edman: Getting some rest Saturday

    Edman isn't in the starting lineup against the Royals on Saturday.

    After starting each of Los Angeles' previous 12 contests, Edman will begin on the bench in Kansas City on Saturday. In his stead, rookie Hyeseong Kim is getting a start at second base while batting in the No. 8 slot.

  • Luis Garcia 2B | WAS

    Nationals' Luis Garcia: Delivers three-hit effort in win

    Garcia went 3-for-6 with two RBI and one run scored in Friday's 15-9 win over the Angels.

    Garcia has put together a strong June, batting .317 (26-for-82) with 13 RBI and eight extra-base hits over 22 games this month. The second baseman was one of three Nationals to post a trio of hits in the team's 19-hit attack Friday. Garcia is up to a .273/.314/.424 slash line with seven home runs, 38 RBI, 37 runs scored, 19 doubles and seven stolen bases over 73 contests. He is holding down a strong-side platoon role at the keystone, with Amed Rosario encroaching on his playing time as a platoon partner after Garcia began the season drawing at least some starts versus southpaws.

  • Otto Lopez SS | MIA

    Marlins' Otto Lopez: Three more hits in win

    Lopez went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run, a double, an additional RBI and two total runs scored in Friday's 9-8 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Lopez has five multi-hit efforts during his eight-game hitting streak, going 15-for-32 (.469) in that span. The infielder's homer Friday was his first since June 9 versus the Pirates, and this was his first game with multiple extra-base hits all season. The 26-year-old's surge has him up to a .261/.332/.386 slash line with a career-high seven homers as well as 35 RBI, 33 runs scored, nine doubles and eight stolen bases over 65 contests in 2025.

  • Nico Hoerner 2B | CHC

    Cubs' Nico Hoerner: Homers in Friday's loss

    Hoerner went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and two total runs scored in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Astros.

    Hoerner got the Cubs on the board with his fifth-inning homer. The middle infielder has hit safely in 14 of his last 16 games, going 20-for-57 (.351) with four extra-base hits in that span. Both of his homers this season have come over the last four games. He's added a .294/.339/.378 slash line with 34 RBI, 45 runs scored, 15 stolen bases, 17 doubles and a triple over 78 contests, so while he won't add much power, he has shown plenty of consistency with his bat and speed.

  • Jordan Lawlar SS | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Jordan Lawlar: Diagnosed with Grade 1 strain

    Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Friday that Lawlar is dealing with a Grade 1 hamstring strain and will be out for "weeks," Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

    Lawlar suffered the injury while playing for Triple-A Reno, and he will miss extended time. A previous report indicated Lawlar would be out for at least a month, and Lovullo's words seem to back up that assessment.

  • Brett Wisely 2B | TB

    Giants' Brett Wisely: Multi-hit effort in defeat

    Wisely went 2-for-4 with a two-RBI double in Thursday's 12-5 loss to the Marlins.

    Wisely appeared in just his second game since being called back up June 20 and recorded his first two hits of the season. He hit a two-RBI double in the fourth inning to tie the game at 5-5 and added a single in the sixth. He's slashing .143/.143/.214 with four RBI and a run scored across 16 big-league plate appearances.
