Machado went 2-for-5 with a triple and three RBI in a win over Arizona on Wednesday.

The third baseman came to the plate with the bases loaded in the fifth inning and tripled in three runs to break the game open for San Diego. The three-bagger was Machado's first of the campaign and accounted for his second three-RBI performance. He is slashing .250/.348/.385 across 112 plate appearances.

Senzel went 4-for-4 in Wednesday's loss against the Dodgers.

The Reds struggled massively on offense Wednesday and only mustered seven hits against the Dodgers' pitching staff, but Senzel was responsible for four of those knocks. The centerfielder snapped a three-game hitless streak, but he has been extremely inconsistent and has gone just 7-for-43 (.162) over his last 15 games.

Rendon went 1-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored Wednesday against the Rangers.

Rendon stepped to the dish with runners on second and third in the first inning, and he delivered a two-run single. That was his only hit of the game as well as his first since returning from the injured list Monday. Through 50 plate appearances this season, Rendon is hitting .233/.320/.302 with one home run, five RBI and six runs scored.

Urshela went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Wednesday's 7-0 win over the Orioles.

Urshela went yard off Orioles starter Dean Kremer in the third inning. The homer was Urshela's fourth of the year, and he's added 15 RBI, eight runs scored and a stolen base in 22 games. The third baseman is slashing .278/.318/.481 through 85 plate appearances, mainly in the heart of the Yankees' order.

Madrigal is not in Wednesday's lineup against the Tigers.

Madrigal is hitting .351 with zero home runs, zero steals, two strikeouts and one walk over his last 10 games. Leury Garcia will start at second base and bat eighth.

Anderson (oblique) is expected to return to the lineup around when he is first eligible, Barry Jackson of The Miami Herald reports.

Saturday is the earliest possible date for Anderson's activation from the IL, but with the Marlins getting an off day Monday, a more cautious approach would see him back on the field Tuesday against the Diamondbacks. The 27-year-old has had a sluggish start at the plate, slashing .200/.262/.300 with one homer and five RBI through 17 games.

McMahon went 1-for-4 with a walk, a two-run home run and two runs scored Tuesday against the Giants.

McMahon delivered a game-winning home run in the 10th inning, his eighth long ball of the campaign. While his power production early on has stood out, McMahon has more quietly cut his strikeout rate from a career mark of 30.1 percent to 22.8 percent through 92 plate appearances this season.

Arenado went 2-for-4 with two doubles and an RBI in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Phillies.

Arenado logged a double in each of his first two at-bats but caught a break in the first inning. Brad Miller misjudged a sliding catch in left field and the ball went off his glove and rolled all the way to the wall, giving him his lone RBI of the evening and tying the game up at 1-1. The two extra-base hits helped him snap a minor 0-for-10 drought and raised his slash line to .256/.309/.456 with four home runs, 13 RBI and 10 runs scored through his first 23 games as a Cardinal.

LeMahieu went 2-for-4 with a double, two runs scored and a walk in Tuesday's win over the Orioles.

LeMahieu entered this game in a 2-for-20 slump, but he bounced back in a big way and reached base three times -- tying a season-high mark for him in that category. The second baseman is having a slow start to the season, though, and he's hitting just .262 with a .704 OPS thus far -- that average would rank as a career-worst mark for him excluding his rookie year in 2011.

Urshela went 1-for-3 with two RBI in Tuesday's win over the Orioles.

Urshela has driven at least one run in three straight games while also hitting safely in six of his last eight contests. He's hitting .296 with during that stretch.
