  • Braves' Drake Baldwin: Three more hits Wednesday

    Baldwin went 3-for-4 with an RBI in Wednesday's win over the Mets.

    All three hits were singles, but it was still another solid night for Baldwin, who's produced multiple knocks in four of his last eight games. The 25-year-old backstop hasn't homered since July 24, however, and over that 18-game drought he's batting .278 (20-for-72) with just two doubles and five RBI.

  • Gary Sanchez C | MIL

    Brewers' Gary Sanchez: Homers Wednesday

    Sanchez went 2-for-4 with a home run and an RBI double in Wednesday's 4-3 extra-innings loss to the Padres.

    Sanchez opened the scoring in the second inning with a two-out, solo shot off Robbie Ray, his 10th long ball this season. Sanchez, who's gone 5-for-11 with two homers and two doubles in his last five games, got the start behind the plate Wednesday, though he's primarily been limited to starts against left-handed pitchers or pinch-hitting duties. Overall, Sanchez is slashing .230/.379/.473 across 206 plate appearances this year with 31 runs scored and 29 RBI.

  • Dodgers' Hunter Feduccia: Smacks third homer

    Feduccia went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Royals.

    Feduccia has gone 9-for-36 (.250) with a homer and four doubles over 16 games since the All-Star break. He's sharing the catching duties with Ben Rortvedt while Will Smith (neck) and Dalton Rushing (elbow) are sidelined. Feduccia and Rortvedt are likely competing for one spot on the roster once Smith is healthy. Overall, Feduccia is batting .237 with a .665 OPS, three homers, 13 RBI, 18 runs scored, eight doubles, one triple and no stolen bases over 176 plate appearances.

  • Keibert Ruiz C | WAS

    Nationals' Keibert Ruiz: Sitting again Wednesday

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

    The switch-hitting Ruiz has fairly even splits against right- and left-handed pitching both this season and throughout his career, but he'll still sit against a southpaw starter (David Peterson) for the second straight day. The Nationals may just have wanted to open up another start at catcher for the 23-year-old Harry Ford, who bats from the right side and had fared better against lefties at Triple-A Rochester this season prior to being recalled July 17.

  • Henry Davis C | PIT

    Pirates' Henry Davis: Filling in for banged-up Rodriguez

    Davis will start at catcher and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

    Davis will be making his fourth straight start behind the dish while Endy Rodriguez continues to miss time while nursing a hip injury. The Pirates are treating Rodriguez as day-to-day, and if Rodriguez is able to avoid a trip to the injured list and return to the lineup in the near future, Davis will likely see his playing time fall by the wayside.

  • Pirates' Endy Rodriguez: Missing out on fifth straight start

    Rodriguez (hip) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

    Rodriguez will be relegated to the bench for a fifth consecutive game while he contends with left hip discomfort. Henry Davis will get another start at catcher in place of Rodriguez, whom the Pirates are viewing as day-to-day.

  • Padres' Luis Campusano: Resting Wednesday

    Campusano is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Brewers.

    Campusano will rest up for Wednesday's matinee after he caught all nine innings of the Padres' 11-2 win Tuesday night while going 3-for-4 with a home run, a walk, three RBI and an additional run. Freddy Fermin will spell Campusano behind the dish in the series finale.

  • Reds' Tyler Stephenson: Exiting starting nine

    Stephenson is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the White Sox.

    It's routine day off after Stephenson started each of the last two games. Jose Trevino will do the catching and bat seventh for the Reds.

  • Phillies' Mark Kolozsvary: Healthy again, sent to Double-A

    Kolozsvary (undisclosed) went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts Tuesday for Double-A Reading after he was assigned to the affiliate when he was activated from Triple-A Lehigh Valley's 60-day injured list.

    Kolozsvary finished the 2025 campaign in the Red Sox organization on Triple-A Worcester's full-season injured list before signing a minor-league deal with Philadelphia in December. The 30-year-old catcher remained shelved to begin the season before starting up a rehab assignment in the Florida State League shortly after the All-Star break. Deemed healthy again after making 12 appearances in the lower levels of the minors, Kolozsvary looks set to fill a depth role at Reading.

  • Reds' Tyler Stephenson: Provides key hit in win

    Stephenson went 1-for-4 with two RBI in Tuesday's 5-4 extra-inning win over the White Sox.

    Cincinnati hitters were befuddled by Chicago starter Sean Burke for seven innings but made their move in the eighth, scoring three runs against the White Sox's bullpen. Stephenson's two-run, bases-loaded single plated the game-tying run and set up the need for an extra frame. The catcher continued a productive stretch since the All-Star break and is slashing .288/.373/.593 with 11 RBI over the last 17 contests.
