  • Lenyn Sosa 2B | CHW

    White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Knocks in pair

    Sosa went 1-for-2 with a walk and two RBI on Sunday against the Astros.

    Sosa only has 10 RBI across 33 games this season, but five have come in his last 10 appearances. He's hitting a decent .256 for the campaign, but he has just a .086 ISO and also suffers from hitting in the bottom-third of the White Sox's order.

  • Luis Garcia 2B | WAS

    Nationals' Luis Garcia: Goes deep in win

    Garcia went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and two RBI in Sunday's win over the Reds.

    Garcia plated the game's first run on a sacrifice in the second and then pushed the Nationals ahead for good with a solo shot to right in the seventh. Sunday was Garcia's third multi-RBI effort this season and he now has five RBI over his last five games, bringing his season total up to 12.

  • Matt McLain SS | CIN

    Reds' Matt McLain: Swipes bag Sunday

    McLain went 1-for-3 with a walk and a steal in Sunday's loss to the Nationals.

    McLain walked and stole second base for his sixth steal of the year but otherwise had a quiet day along with most of the lineup. He's yet to find any sort of rhythm offensively since returning from a brief IL stint in mid-April and currently sits in the bottom 10 of qualified hitters with a 31 percent strikeout rate.

  • Colt Keith 3B | DET

    Tigers' Colt Keith: Goes deep again Sunday

    Keith went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer, two walks and three runs scored in Sunday's win over the Angels.

    Keith took Jack Kochanowicz deep to center in the third to put the Tigers up 5-0. It was his third home run in his last five games after he had zero in his previous 27. Over these last five games, Keith has driven in five runs and scored eight times while producing a 4:3 BB:K. He's showing signs of life and barreling the ball more after not doing much offensively over the first month of the season.

  • Hye Seong Kim 2B | LAD

    Dodgers' Hyeseong Kim: Swipes first big-league bag

    Kim stole a base as a pinch runner in Sunday's 4-3 loss to Atlanta.

    Kim hasn't received a major-league plate appearance yet after being called up from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday -- he appeared as a defensive replacement in the ninth inning in his first major-league contest and pinch ran Sunday. The 26-year-old impressed with his speed against Atlanta, easily swiping second base after pinch running in the ninth frame for Andy Pages and later moving to third on a throw to first base by the catcher following a strikeout. However, Raisel Iglesias struck out the side to prevent Kim from crossing the plate. Per Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts plans to have Kim primarily come off the bench until Tommy Edman (ankle) returns from the injured list, though Kim might get a few starts along the way.

  • Jorbit Vivas 2B | NYY

    Yankees' Jorbit Vivas: Collects first big-league hit

    Vivas went 1-for-2 with two RBI in Sunday's 7-5 loss to the Rays.

    Vivas didn't start the contest, but he entered as a pinch hitter in the seventh inning and grounded out in his first at-bat. The 24-year-old accomplished a personal milestone in his second trip to the plate, singling in a pair of runs for his first major-league hit. Vivas had gone 0-for-3 with two walks in his first two games after getting called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday. He could see frequent starts at second base while Jazz Chisholm (oblique) is on the shelf.

  • Brandon Lowe 2B | PIT

    Rays' Brandon Lowe: Knocks in two

    Lowe went 1-for-4 with two RBI and two walks Sunday against the Yankees.

    Lowe managed to drive in a pair with a single in the fourth inning, though he still hasn't snapped out of a slow start to the season. He's hitting only .203 paired with a 28.1 percent strikeout rate, but most problematic has been his lack of power. Lowe's only extra-base hits of the season have been his four home runs, leading to just a .102 ISO across 128 plate appearances.

  • Miguel Rojas SS | LAD

    Dodgers' Miguel Rojas: Homers off bench Sunday

    Rojas went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Sunday's 4-3 loss to Atlanta.

    Rojas has hit safely in six of his last seven games dating back to April 23. In that span, he has gone 8-for-15 with three RBI. The infielder is filling a bench role early in 2025, and he's batting .265 with a .647 OPS, one homer, three RBI, three runs scored and no stolen bases over 50 plate appearances. Tommy Edman's (ankle) stay on the injured list has opened up time at second base, but Rojas is competing with Enrique Hernandez and Chris Taylor, and Hyeseong Kim is also in the mix, though he's come off the bench in his first two major-league games.

  • Mets' Luisangel Acuna: Three hits, steal in matinee loss

    Acuna went 3-for-4 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in a 6-5 loss to the Cardinals in Game 1 of Sunday's doubleheader.

    Acuna continues to lead the Mets in steals -- his theft Sunday was his eighth of the season. This was also his third multi-hit effort in the last six games, though he followed it up with an 0-for-4 effort in the nightcap. Acuna is at a .298/.355/.369 slash line with no home runs, four RBI, 14 runs scored and six doubles across 93 plate appearances this season. He continues to see a majority of the playing time at second base, though he started at third in the day game.

  • Gabriel Arias SS | CLE

    Guardians' Gabriel Arias: Records three hits in win

    Arias went 3-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 5-4 win over Toronto.

    Arias had his most productive game in a couple of weeks. He entered Sunday batting .184 (7-for-38) with one RBI over the last 13 games. Arias started at shortstop, his fourth start there in the last six games and 11th this season.
