  • Matt Chapman 3B | SF

    Giants' Matt Chapman: Scores twice in defeat

    Chapman went 2-for-4 with two runs scored, an RBI, a double and a walk in Saturday's 13-7 loss to the Dodgers.

    Chapman lined an RBI single to left field in the first inning before coming around to score. He added a double in the fifth and scored once again, marking his fourth multi-hit performance across 11 games this month. He's slashing .361/.465/.722 with 10 runs scored, seven RBI, four doubles and three home runs across 43 plate appearances in September. Overall, he has recorded a .243/.352/.456 slash line with 70 runs scored, 57 RBI, 21 long balls and nine stolen bases in 480 plate appearances this season.

  • Alex Bregman 3B | BOS

    Red Sox's Alex Bregman: Launches homer in loss

    Bregman went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Yankees.

    Bregman put the Red Sox on the board with his fifth-inning homer, reducing the deficit to 4-1. The blast was his first one since Aug. 12, ending a drought of 27 games. During that span, Bregman slashed .214/.305/.262 with seven RBI.

  • Padres' Manny Machado: Pops 25th homer

    Machado went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk, three total RBI and two runs scored in Saturday's 11-3 win over the Rockies.

    This was Machado's fourth homer in the last 10 games, though he has gone just 7-for-39 (.179) in that span. The third baseman is also up to 25 long balls on the year, a mark he has reached in each of the last 10 full-length seasons. Machado would need an impressive run of power to get back to 30 homers after missing that threshold last year. He's added a .277/.338/.464 slash line with 88 RBI, 85 runs scored, 33 doubles and 13 stolen bases over 149 contests in 2025.

  • Diamondbacks' Blaze Alexander: Collects two RBI vs. Minnesota

    Alexander went 2-for-5 with a two-run double during the Diamondbacks' 5-2 extra-inning win over the Twins on Saturday.

    Alexander gave Arizona a three-run cushion in the 10th inning on a double to right field that brought Corbin Carroll and Gabriel Moreno home. It was a nice bounce-back performance for Alexander after he went 0-for-5 with a strikeout in Friday's series opener. He has logged at least one hit in five of his last six games and has gone 10-for-41 (.244) with seven RBI in 11 games since the start of September.

  • Rays' Junior Caminero: Knocks 43rd long ball

    Caminero went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and a double in Saturday's 5-4 victory versus the Cubs.

    Caminero came up big in the eighth inning, blasting a 423-foot solo shot to center field to tie the score 4-4. The homer was his fourth through 12 contests in September and his 43rd overall this season. Among AL hitters, only Cal Raleigh (53) and Aaron Judge (47) have gone deep more than Caminero.

  • Max Muncy 3B | LAD

    Dodgers' Max Muncy: In Saturday's lineup

    Muncy (forearm) will start at third base and bat fourth against the Giants on Saturday, Kirsten Watson of Spectrum SportsNet LA reports.

    Muncy was taken out of Friday's contest after getting hit on the forearm by a pitch, but the damage wasn't significant enough for him to miss a start. He'll aim to build some momentum Saturday after going 1-for-9 with two walks since his return from the IL.

  • Javier Sanoja SS | MIA

    Marlins' Javier Sanoja: Late addition to lineup Saturday

    Sanoja has been added to Miami's lineup against Detroit as the No. 9 hitter and third baseman Saturday.

    Sanoja was originally slated to begin on the bench, but he's been called upon to start after Xavier Edwards was scratched due to right wrist discomfort. With Sanoja entering the lineup at the hot corner, Maximo Acosta is sliding over to second base.

  • Nathan Eaton LF | BOS

    Red Sox's Nate Eaton: Breaks up no-hit bid

    Eaton started in right field and went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 4-1 loss to the Yankees.

    Eaton busted up a no-hit bid by New York pitching with a seventh-inning home run, one of two hits Boston mustered on the evening. He's been part of the crew helping to fill a void in right field, along with Nick Sogard and Rob Refsnyder. That void will eventually be filled by Wilyer Abreu (calf), who is running at 85 percent, per MLB.com. Abreu could return during next week's series against the Athletics beginning Sept. 16. Since being called up from Triple-A Worcester in August, Eaton is batting .278 with a .750 OPS, one home run, two RBI and six runs scored over 15 games.

  • Max Muncy 3B | LAD

    Dodgers' Max Muncy: Hit by pitch, exits game

    Muncy was removed from Friday's game against the Giants after getting hit on the right forearm by a pitch, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Muncy initially remained in the game to run the bases after taking a pitch off his arm in the eighth inning but was pulled once the Dodgers' defense took the field. The severity of his injury is currently unknown, but if the Dodgers decide to sit him down for a game or two, Enrique Hernandez and Miguel Rojas would be next in line for starts at the hot corner.

  • Isaac Paredes 3B | HOU

    Astros' Isaac Paredes: To take live BP

    Paredes (hamstring) will take live batting practice Saturday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

    Paredes is making progress in his recovery from a torn right hamstring and will hit off live pitching Saturday. The Astros are hoping to get Paredes back before the end of the regular season, but the third baseman will likely require a lengthy minor-league rehab stint before being activated.
