Senzel went 2-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run in Wednesday's 8-3 extra-inning loss to the Mets.

The 27-year-old got the Reds on the board by taking David Peterson deep in the second inning. Senzel has only three homers on the year, but two of them have come in the last three games, and over the last 13 contests he's slashing a blistering .442/.489/.605.

McMahon went 0-for-4 with a strikeout and a stolen base Wednesday against the Dodgers.

McMahon reached base on a fielder's choice in the second inning and proceeded to steal second base. He has now swiped three bags this season, all of which have come in his last five games. McMahon has also chipped in seven home runs, 38 RBI and 33 runs scored across 80 games on the season.

Donaldson went 2-for-5 with a homer, two RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's 16-0 victory over the Pirates.

Donaldson was all over the scoresheet in Wednesday's blowout win. He launched a solo homer in the sixth inning, then sent Aaron Hicks home on a sac fly in the eighth. The third baseman came around to score again in the ninth on a Kyle Higashioka single. Donaldson has four hits over his last four games, but he has also struck out five times during that span, something that has plagued him as he has more strikeouts than hits on the year. He has a .226 average on the season to go along with seven homers and 25 RBI.

LeMahieu went 3-for-6 with two RBI, two runs scored and a steal in Wednesday's win over the Pirates.

LeMahieu's two RBI came on a single in the first inning when he sent Joey Gallo and Isiah Kiner-Falefa home. LeMahieu came around to score in the eighth on an Aaron Judge homer, then again in the ninth thanks to an Aaron Hicks homer. He also added a steal, his fourth of the year. LeMahieu has two steals already this month after picking up just one in June. The infielder is batting .333 in July after Wednesday's three-hit outing. He has four hits in his last two games and is now slashing .267/.368/.406 on the season.

Urshela went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run and two runs scored Wednesday against the White Sox.

Urshela took Matt Foster yard in the eighth inning to record his eighth homer of the season. He has four multi-hit games in his last nine starts, maintaining a .353 average with two home runs, five RBI and five runs scored in that span. Overall, Urshela has a .266/.314/.414 line across 287 plate appearances on the season.

Chapman went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Wednesday's victory over the Athletics.

Chapman walked in the fifth inning before he later took James Kaprielian deep for a solo shot in the seventh frame. He also added a single in his final at-bat in the ninth. The homer was his 13th of the season and he has now gone deep in back-to-back games. Chapman came into Tuesday's contest in the midst of an 0-for-16 stretch from the plate, but he went 5-for-7 with two homers and three RBI in the final two games of the series to snap out of the cold spell.

Longoria was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a strained left oblique, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

It's unclear when exactly the veteran third baseman picked up the injury, though it presumably occurred Tuesday while going 0-for-3 with a walk and two strikeouts against Arizona. Longoria doesn't have a clear timeline for his return, but he seems likely to be sidelined through the All-Star break.

Moncada exited Wednesday's game against the Twins due to a right foot contusion, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.

Moncada appeared to be walking gingerly after fouling a ball off his right foot in the fourth inning Wednesday and was ultimately replaced defensively in the top of the seventh. However, he underwent X-rays that came back negative, so he's considered day-to-day. If the 27-year-old misses additional time, Josh Harrison and Leury Garcia should see increased looks at the hot corner.

Moncada was removed in the top of the seventh inning of Wednesday's game against the Twins with an apparent foot injury, James Fegan of The Athletic reports. He went 1-for-3 with a base hit prior to his departure.

Moncada is believed to have suffered the injury during his fourth-inning plate appearance, when he looked to be in discomfort after fouling a ball off his foot. He initially stayed in the contest and came to the plate once more before departing three innings later, with Josh Harrison coming off the bench to replace him during a tie game. Expect the White Sox to provide another update on Moncada's condition after the game.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Devers won't start Wednesday against the Rays while tending to a "little bit" of right hamstring soreness and back tightness, Steve Hewitt of the Boston Herald reports.

When Devers sat out Tuesday's 8-4 loss, the prevailing thought was that he was receiving a routine maintenance day after starting each of Boston's previous 10 contests. However, Cora clarified Wednesday that the 25-year-old is banged up with multiple minor injuries, though none appear significant enough to result in a trip to the 10-day injured list. In fact, Cora indicated that Devers will be available off the bench if needed Wednesday, per Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe. Christian Arroyo will fill in at third base Wednesday in place of Devers, who could be ready to go for Thursday's series opener with the Yankees.
