Bregman went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBI and a run scored Thursday against the Indians.

Bregman extended his hitting streak to eight games in fashion, as he took Mike Clevinger deep in the fifth inning for a three-run home run. It was Bregman's fifth home run this season, and second in five games. Though his season-long numbers still don't match his lofty draft day cost, he has picked up his pace of late scoring six runs, driving in seven and stealing two bases during his current hit streak.

Segura went 3-for-4 with a run scored Thursday against the Athletics.

After going hitless Wednesday night, Segura bounced back Thursday with three singles. The depleted Mariners' lineup could only bring him around to score once, though he has now scored eight runs in his past 10 games. His hot start to the season has continued, and he remains among the American League leaders in stolen bases, runs scored and batting average.

Alvarez went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored Thursday against the White Sox.

With Mark Trumbo (knee) still sidelined and a right-hander on mound, Alvarez got his second chance to start in the Orioles' series against the White Sox. He took advantage by getting on base three times. Overall, the story remains the same for Alvarez as he is slugging .484, but striking out at a 24 percent clip in 93 at-bats this season.

Suarez went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in Thursday's win over the Pirates.

Suarez continues to make a case for being the most underrated player in baseball. Despite missing more than two weeks in April a thumb injury, Suarez leads the Reds in RBI with 38 and ranks third on the team in homers with eight. He has 24 RBI in May alone.

Muncy is starting at first base and hitting eighth Wednesday against the Rockies.

Muncy looked poised to lose out on most of his playing time with Justin Turner returning from the disabled list, but the 27-year-old is set make his fifth consecutive start at first base, with the Dodgers opting to shift Cody Bellinger to center field. Through 29 games this season, Muncy owns a respectable .240/.356/.507 line with five homers and 15 RBI.

Segura went 1-for-5 and scored the go-ahead run in an extra-inning win over the Athletics on Tuesday.

Segura capped off an eventful night for the Mariners by hustling home all the way from first base on a Guillermo Heredia double in the visitors' half of the 10th. The shortstop was able to beat a relay throw and slide through Jonathan Lucroy, jamming his left shoulder on the backstop's leg in the process. Segura laid briefly behind home plate after the play and was checked out by a trainer before returning to the dugout and then taking the field for the bottom half of the frame. Factoring in Tuesday's production, the talented shortstop boasts a five-game hitting streak as well as a .337 average for the month of May.

Bregman went 2-for-4 with a walk, two doubles, two RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 11-2 win over the Giants.

Bregman extended his hitting streak to six games (8-for-23, four extra-base hits) and has reached base safely in 17 of 19 games during the month of May. That shouldn't come as too much of a surprise as it was during May when he started to bust out last season. He's slashing .286/.383/.529 this month, raising his season line to .270/.381/.427. The Albuquerque native may be one of those players whose bat heats up as the weather does.

Davis went 0-for-1 with three walks and scored three runs in Tuesday's 11-2 win over the Giants.

Davis got the nod in left field Tuesday, his first game with the Astros since being called up Sunday from Triple-A Fresno. He broke camp with the big-league club while Yulieski Gurriel recovered from a hand injury and didn't show much; however, he hit everything back at Fresno in the Pacific Coast League and deserved this most recent callup. It's probably too much to expect that he permanently dislodges Marwin Gonzalez, but there's an opportunity for at-bats as Gonzalez (.225) and Josh Reddick (.227) have been inconsistent at best. Manager A.J. Hinch is not afraid to sit an under-performing regular.

Bregman went 2-for-4 with two RBI, two doubles, a run and a stolen base in Tuesday's win over the Giants.

Bregman got an RBI double in the third off starter Andrew Suarez, and recorded another RBI double in the sixth off reliever Reyes Moronta. Bregman is now riding a nice six-game hitting streak and has brought his average up to .270. The 24-year-old's 16 doubles are tied for fourth in the majors.

Ramirez went 1-for-2 with three walks, a home run, three RBI and two runs scored Tuesday against the Cubs.

Ramirez took Tyler Chatwood deep in the third inning to jump-start the Indians' offense to a 10-run effort Tuesday. It was his 14th home run of the season, and seventh for the month. He continues to impress in every way possible at the plate, ranking among the American League leaders in several different statistics, including home runs, RBI, runs scored and OPS.
