    Reds' Noelvi Marte: Drives in two in win

    Marte went 2-for-5 with a double, two RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 11-1 win over Minnesota.

    Marte, whose ground-rule double plated two during the Reds' nine-run fourth inning, entered the contest with just one RBI over the previous 13 games. Not much has gone right for him since returning from an 80-game suspension, and recently he's lost playing time to Santiago Espinal. Marte's played just seven of 13 games thus far in September.

  • Reds' Jeimer Candelario: Could be done for season

    Candelario (toe) is unlikely to return and finish the season, MLB.com reports.

    Candelario, who was hit by a pitch during a game Aug. 18, landed on the injured list a couple of days later and has yet to resume baseball activities. Cincinnati manager David Bell said Saturday that it looks like Candelario will not be back this season, adding there is still pain in the toe. If that's it for Candelario, he'll finish his first season as a member of the Reds with 20 home runs, 56 RBI, four steals, 47 runs scored and a line of .225/.279/.429 over 112 games.

  • Jose Tena DH | WAS

    Nationals' Jose Tena: Fills stat sheet in win

    Tena went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a stolen base and an additional run scored in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Marlins.

    Tena tallied a homer and a steal in the same contest for the first time in his career. He has hit safely in eight of his past 10 games with five multi-hit efforts, four extra-base hits and six runs scored. In 113 plate appearances with the Nationals, the 23-year-old is hitting .318 with three home runs, 13 RBI, 13 runs scored and five stolen bases.

  • Isaac Paredes 3B | HOU

    Cubs' Isaac Paredes: Tallies three hits in loss

    Paredes went 3-for-4 with a run scored in Friday's 9-5 loss to the Rockies.

    All three hits were singles but Paredes will take all the base knocks he can get after starting slowly with his new team. The infielder is heating up lately, however, as he's now riding a five-game hitting streak. During the stretch, Paredes is batting a sizzling .529 with a 1.134 OPS. It looks like the 25-year-old is turning a corner in a Chicago uniform and could be primed for a big final few weeks of the regular season.

  • Alec Bohm 3B | PHI

    Phillies' Alec Bohm: Beginning assignment Saturday

    Bohm (hand) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Saturday, Alex Coffey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Bohm has been on the injured list since Sept. 6 due to a strained left hand, though he hasn't played in a game since late August. He'll now head out to the minors to play a few tune-up games, and manager Rob Thomson said that the 28-year-old could return to the Phillies on Monday for the start of their upcoming series in Milwaukee.

  • Max Muncy 3B | LAD

    Dodgers' Max Muncy: Slugs another homer Wednesday

    Muncy went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, two walks and two total runs Wednesday in a 10-8 victory versus the Cubs.

    Muncy was part of a huge Los Angeles first inning during which the team homered four times. The third baseman knocked the third of back-to-back-to-back long balls in that frame, following Tommy Edman and Will Smith. Muncy has three home runs in his past four games and has drawn four walks during that stretch.

  • Matt Chapman 3B | SF

    Giants' Matt Chapman: Goes yard in blowout win

    Chapman went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 13-2 win over the Brewers.

    Chapman has gone 17-for-49 (.347) with four homers, two stolen bases and 10 RBI over his last 14 games. The third baseman's long ball Wednesday gave the Giants their 10th run, and he later exited the blowout win to get some well-earned rest. Chapman is up to 24 homers, 73 RBI, 93 runs scored, 15 steals and a .251/.334/.456 slash line over 142 contests.

  • Ryan McMahon 3B | NYY

    Rockies' Ryan McMahon: Belts 19th homer

    McMahon went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 7-4 loss to the Tigers.

    The Rockies were in a 6-0 hole after the first inning, but McMahon got them on the board in the top of the second by taking Casey Mize deep. McMahon has emerged from his post-All-Star break malaise, and over his last 16 games he's slashing a respectable .262/.328/.426 with three homers, four runs and six RBI. His next long ball will give the 29-year-old his fourth straight 20-homer campaign.

  • Jared Triolo SS | PIT

    Pirates' Jared Triolo: Slugs eighth homer

    Triolo went 2-for-3 with a solo home run Wednesday against the Marlins.

    Triolo remains locked in as Pittsburgh's starting third baseman in the absence of Ke'Bryan Hayes (back). In 21 games since Hayes went down, Triolo has hit .261 with three home runs, 14 RBI, 11 runs scored and two stolen bases.

  • Eugenio Suarez DH | CIN

    Diamondbacks' Eugenio Suarez: Goes yard twice in rout

    Suarez went 4-for-4 with a double, two solo home runs and two additional runs scored in Wednesday's 14-4 rout of the Rangers.

    The third baseman took Cody Bradford deep in the second inning before capping his huge day at the plate with another solo blast in the seventh off Owen White. Suarez is steaming toward his fifth career 30-homer campaign -- through 10 games in September, he's slashing a stunning .500/.558/1.132 with seven long balls. With 92 RBI on the year, the 33-year-old is also closing in on his third career 100-RBI season, and first since 2019.
