O'Hoppe went 2-for-4 with a pair of home runs, a walk, three total runs and three total RBI in Wednesday's 10-5 win over the Athletics.

O'Hoppe kicked off the scoring in the game with a massive 470-foot two-run shot in the second inning and added a 431-foot solo blast in the fourth. The powerful young catcher has three homers in his past two games and has collected exactly two hits in three straight contests. O'Hoppe continues to blossom into one of MLB's best hitters at his position-- he ranks second among backstops in the league with 13 home runs, is tied for third with 28 RBI and is slashing a strong .270/.306/.541 through 157 plate appearances.

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.

Perez went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run and a double during Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Giants.

Perez fell a triple shy of hitting for the cycle, including a fourth-inning homer off Logan Webb to put the Royals up 6-1. The catcher's long ball was his first since April 13, a shockingly long drought for the power-hitting backstop, who hit 121 combined homers in the previous four seasons. In 199 plate appearances this year, Perez is slashing .223/.258/.346 with three home runs, 14 doubles and 23 RBI.

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.

Heim was removed from Wednesday's game against the Yankees due to a compressed nerve in his right hand, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Heim's hand began bothering him after he hit a ball off the end of his bat in the second inning, and he was replaced behind the dish when the Rangers went back out on defense. The severity of the backstop's injury remains unclear, but Kyle Higashioka and Tucker Barnhart could pick up some starts if Heim needs to miss some time.

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.

Rutschman went 2-for-6 with a double and a three-run home run in Wednesday's 8-4 extra-innings win over the Brewers.

The backstop capped the scoring on the afternoon by depositing a Tyler Alexander cutter over the left-field fence in the 11th inning. The home run was Rutschman's fifth of the season but his first off a southpaw, and it snapped a 25-game power drought for the switch hitter. While he's had a tough start to the season, Rutschman's bat may be waking up -- over his last 10 games he's batting .278 (10-for-36) with half of his hits going for extra bases (three doubles and a triple in addition to Wednesday's homer).

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.
