Realmuto went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double and three total RBI in a 9-5 win against the Rockies on Wednesday.

Realmuto was the only Phillies batter with multiple extra-base hits Wednesday. He doubled to notch an RBI in the third inning and belted a two-run homer in the sixth. The three-hit performance snapped a small four-game slump during which the veteran catcher went 1-for-17 at the plate. On the season overall, Realmuto is slashing .240/.316/.403 with five homers, 19 RBI and four stolen bases through 41 games.

Davis went 2-for-2 with an RBI and a walk Wednesday against the Reds.

Davis continues getting only sporadic playing time, but he does have at least one hit in each of his last three starts. He played a key role in Wednesday's win, driving in a run with a single in the fourth inning. Davis also applied a key tag at home plate to end the sixth frames to preserve a 2-1 lead for the Pirates. Joey Bart is likely to continue to get the majority of playing time behind the plate, but Davis is showing modest signs of potential.

Bailey went 1-for-3 with a solo home run during Wednesday's 8-4 loss to Kansas City.

Bailey's home run drought ended Wednesday, as he hit his first homer of the season in his 138th plate appearance. The 26-year-old catcher has struggled at the plate, tallying a 30.5 percent strikeout rate and a meager .507 OPS overall. He hasn't recorded multiple hits in a game since May 6.

Knizner signed a minor-league contract with the Giants on Wednesday.

Knizner was let go by the Nationals on Saturday after turning in a 1.016 OPS across 91 plate appearances with their Triple-A affiliate, and he'll now look to work his way up to the majors with the Giants. San Francisco hasn't gotten much production from Patrick Bailey (.474 OPS) or Sam Huff (.534) this season, so Knizner could be back in the big leagues relatively soon if he keeps hitting well.

Smith is not in the Dodgers' starting lineup against the Diamondbacks on Wednesday.

Smith will get a breather after going 2-for-6 with two walks and two RBI over the first two games of the series. Dalton Rushing will serve behind home plate and bat eighth in Wednesday's finale.

Diaz is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays.

Diaz will take a seat for the second night in a row due to Martin Maldonado receiving another start behind the dish. Maldonado has gone 3-for-29 at the plate over his last 12 contests, so he doesn't yet seem to have mounted a serious case for supplanting Diaz as the Padres' preferred backstop.

Murphy is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nationals.

Murphy owns an .817 OPS for the season, but with rookie Drake Baldwin sporting an even hotter bat (.983 OPS), the playing time behind the dish has begun to tilt in the youngster's favor. The two backstops seem to be moving into a loose platoon behind the dish, as the right-handed-hitting Murphy has made each of his last three starts against left-handed pitching but now finds himself out of the lineup for a fifth straight matchup with a righty (Trevor Williams).

Alvarez is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Boston.

After starting each of the last three games, Alvarez will get a breather in Wednesday's series finale. The Mets will turn to Luis Torrens at catcher as they try to avoid being swept.

Triple-A Albuquerque reinstated Romo (finger) from the 7-day injured list Tuesday.

Romo didn't play Tuesday in Albuquerque's 7-6 loss to Reno, but the 23-year-old backstop is healthy again after a finger injury sidelined him for the first seven weeks of the season. He was cleared to report to Albuquerque after going 3-for-16 with a walk, a stolen base, two runs and an RBI over five rehab games in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League.

Hicks is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

Over the past month, Hicks has slashed .372/.413/.744 over a stretch of 13 games and has earned a larger role as a result, but he's still not locked into a full-time role while the Marlins have Agustin Ramirez and Nick Fortes on hand at catcher and a number of other options available to handle designated-hitter duties. Hicks will remain on the bench for a second straight game with Ramirez handling catching duties Wednesday and with Matt Mervis getting the nod at DH.
