Sanchez went 1-for-2 with an RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's 10-4 loss to the Brewers.

He caught Milwaukee napping in the second inning to steal his second bag of the season, and only the sixth of his career. Sanchez then got lifted for a pinch hitter in the seventh inning with the game seemingly out of reach. The 29-year-old has had a rough July at the plate, slashing .171/.261/.268 through 14 games with one homer and six RBI, but he'll remain Minnesota's primary catcher with Ryan Jeffers (thumb) sidelined until September, barring a significant addition by the Twins at the trade deadline.

Realmuto went 2-for-4 with two RBI on Wednesday against Atlanta.

Realmuto drove in a pair with a single in the sixth frame. The knock extended his hitting streak to nine games, during which he's hit .438 with two home runs, nine RBI and four runs scored. Overall, Realmuto is hitting .257/.330/.406 across 342 plate appearances on the season.

Bart (illness) is absent from Wednesday's lineup versus the Diamondbacks, Evan Webeck of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

After leaving Tuesday's contest early due to an illness, Bart will miss Wednesday's series finale. Austin Wynns will start at catcher and bat ninth against Arizona.
