  • Nick Gonzales 2B | PIT

    Pirates' Nick Gonzales: Homers in nightcap

    Gonzales went 4-for-10 with a double, a solo home run and a second run scored in Thursday's doubleheader split with the Tigers.

    After going 1-for-5 with a double in Thursday's opener, Gonzales opened the scoring in the nightcap with a homer off Tyler Holton, his second of the season and first since Opening Day. Gonzales has gone 7-for-22 (.318) over his last five games, boosting his slash line to .259/.290/.448 with four RBI and seven runs scored through his first 62 plate appearances this year.

  • Ketel Marte 2B | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte: Three hits vs. Toronto

    Marte went 3-for-5 with an RBI double and two runs scored in Thursday's 9-5 win over the Blue Jays.

    Marte registered his second three-hit game of the season Thursday while extending the Diamondbacks' lead to seven runs in the sixth with an RBI double. Marte has been hot at the plate in June, slashing .317/.431/.533 with 15 runs scored, four home runs and 11 RBI in 72 plate appearances this month.

  • Giants' Tyler Fitzgerald: Day off Thursday

    Fitzgerald is not in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Guardians.

    Fitzgerald will head to the bench for the second time in four contests while he slashed just .143/.218/.163 to begin June. Christian Koss will start at second base and bat ninth for the Giants in the series finale.

  • Cardinals' Brendan Donovan: Sitting out first game of day

    Donovan is not in the lineup for the first game of Thursday's doubleheader versus the White Sox.

    The Cardinals will go with Nolan Gorman at second base in the first game of the twin bill. Donovan should be back in the lineup for the second game of the day.

  • Thairo Estrada 2B | BAL

    Rockies' Thairo Estrada: Remains out Thursday

    Estrada (hand) remains out of the lineup for Thursday's contest versus the Nationals.

    Estrada will miss a second straight start after exiting Tuesday's 10-6 win when he was hit by a pitch on the right hand. He will be hoping to return to the lineup when the Rockies return home Friday to begin a series against the Diamondbacks. Orlando Arcia will handle second base and bat eighth Thursday.

  • Bryson Stott 2B | PHI

    Phillies' Bryson Stott: Carries offense in Wednesday's win

    Stott went 2-for-3 with a walk, a three-run home run and a stolen base in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Marlins.

    The second baseman capped a four-run fourth inning for the Phillies by launching a first-pitch fastball from Adam Mazur over the fence in right-center field. Stott ended a 26-game homer drought with the blast, a stretch in which he slashed just .181/.238/.202 with three RBI and seven runs. On the season, the 27-year-old sports a career-worst .642 OPS with five homers, 12 steals, 30 RBI and 32 runs in 68 contests.

  • Matt McLain SS | CIN

    Reds' Matt McLain: Adds to productive stretch in win

    McLain went 1-for-2 with an RBI in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Twins.

    McLain has been a pretty big disappointment with a .619 OPS this season, but he's slowly beginning to find a rhythm recently. The 25-year-old second baseman is slashing .293/.396/.463 with two home runs, two doubles and eight RBI over his last 48 plate appearances (13 games). McLain lost all of last season due to injury and has consistently hit ninth for over a month, but perhaps manager Terry Francona will consider moving the middle infielder back up the order if he continues to swing a hot bat.

  • Ozzie Albies 2B | ATL

    Braves' Ozzie Albies: Tallies first triple amid slump

    Albies went 2-for-4 with a double, a triple and a run scored in Wednesday's 5-0 win over the Mets.

    Albies tallied his first triple of the season, and it was just the second instance this year that he posted multiple extra-base hits. Wednesday marked the second baseman's first multi-hit game since May 25, as he continues to have a hard time finding his footing with a .634 OPS in 2025. Over his last 20 outings, Albies is slashing .192/.298/.288 with four extra-base knocks, six RBI, six runs scored and a lone stolen base covering 84 plate appearances.

  • Adam Frazier 2B | LAA

    Pirates' Adam Frazier: Exiting starting nine Wednesday

    Frazier is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers.

    The lefty-hitting Frazier had started in seven of the Pirates' previous eight games, but he'll be shielded Wednesday from arguably the game's top lefty in Tarik Skubal. Tommy Pham will replace Frazier in left field and bat eighth.

  • Thairo Estrada 2B | BAL

    Rockies' Thairo Estrada: Taking seat Wednesday

    Estrada (hand) is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nationals.

    Estrada exited Tuesday's win after being hit in the right hand by a pitch. X-rays came back clean, but Estrada is likely sore and will be given at least one day of rest. Kyle Farmer will start at the keystone and bat second for the Rockies.
