    Yelich contributed early and often Sunday, scoring a run in the first inning, swiping a bag in the third and driving in two runs in the fourth. The 33-year-old has been on fire over his past 10 games, tallying five multi-hit efforts with three extra-base hits, 12 RBI, six runs scored and three steals.

In five games as the starting first baseman, Steer's gone 7-for-22 (.318) with a double, a home run, five RBI, a stolen base and six runs scored.

  • Pirates' Andrew McCutchen: Knocks four hits

    McCutchen went 4-for-4 with a solo homer in Sunday's loss to the Dodgers

    McCutchen drilled a solo shot in the first inning for his third home run of the season. He added three more base hits throughout the contest, but it didn't do much good as the Pirates lost 9-2. McCutchen had just one multi-hit performance over his previous 15 games, going 9-for-49 (.184) during that span. He's now slashing .276/.368/.447 through 87 plate appearances.

  • Jesse Winker DH | NYM

    Mets' Jesse Winker: Sitting versus southpaw

    Winker is not in the Mets' starting lineup against the Nationals on Sunday.

    Winker will begin Sunday's game in the dugout while the Nationals send southpaw Mitchell Parker to the mound. Starling Marte will serve as the Mets' designated hitter and bat fifth. Winker has gone 4-for-14 with one walk, two runs scored and a solo homer over his last five games.

  • Marcell Ozuna DH | ATL

    Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Opens scoring with homer

    Ozuna went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Saturday's 8-7 extra-inning win over Arizona.

    Ozuna took Merrill Kelly deep in the first inning. This was Ozuna's fifth homer of the season, and he also drew a walk for a sixth straight game. He has nine free passes and just three strikeouts in that six-game span while batting .375 (6-for-16). The designated hitter is batting .311 with a 1.031 OPS, 10 RBI, 14 runs scored and two doubles across 100 plate appearances so far in 2025, as he's been the most consistent producer of a largely underwhelming Atlanta lineup.

  • Jorge Barrosa CF | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Jorge Barrosa: Starts against lefty

    Barrosa started in center field and went 1-for-4 with an RBI in Friday's 8-2 loss to Atlanta.

    Barrosa made his first start (second appearance) since being called up from Triple-A Reno on Tuesday. While primary center fielder Alek Thomas has hit well to start the season, including a small-sample 3-for-9 against lefties, the Diamondbacks remain reticent to use him against southpaws. The switch-hitting Barrosa will serve as the right-handed complement in center field. He had an .857 OPS over 105 plate appearances at Reno prior to his call-up.

    Smith isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against Atlanta, Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona reports.
