Jimenez went 2-for-4 with a home run and four RBI in Wednesday's 8-6 loss to the Royals.

After starter Reynaldo Lopez put the White Sox in a 2-0 hole in the top of the first inning, Jimenez got it all back and then some with a three-run homer in the bottom of the inning. He later produced another run with a groundout. Jimenez has knocked in eight runs over the last two games.

Choi went 2-for-2 with three walks, two home runs and four RBI in Wednesday's 10-9 loss to the Rangers.

His three-run blast in the second inning helped Tampa tie the game up after Texas exploded for seven runs in the bottom of the first, and his solo shot in the ninth nearly knotted things up again, but in between Choi got picked off second base in the seventh -- one of four Rays caught napping on the basepaths over the course of the night. The 28-year-old now has 15 homers and 54 RBI on the year to go with his .259/.361/.438 slash line.

Harper went 1-for-2 with two walks, a stolen base and a run in a 3-1 loss against the Braves on Wednesday.

The 26-year-old is right about where he was last season in multiple categories during his first Phillies campaign. Harper is batting .255 with 31 home runs, 102 RBI, 88 runs and 12 steals in 513 at-bats this year, and he's swiped four of those bags since Aug. 31.

Turner will have an MRI on his sore left ankle, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

X-rays were inconclusive, but the ankle is still causing Turner discomfort so the Dodgers want to get to the bottom of the issue. Given that he needs an MRI Wednesday or Thursday, it seems unlikely that he would be able to return prior to this weekend's series against the Mets, at the earliest. The Dodgers have already won the NL West, so they can afford to be patient with Turner. Jedd Gyorko is starting at third base and hitting eighth Wednesday.

Pederson is not in Wednesday's lineup against the Orioles.

He will head to the bench with lefty John Means on the hill for Baltimore. Chris Taylor is starting in right field and hitting third.

Turner (ankle) is not in Wednesday's lineup against the Orioles.

Turner has been out since Sept. 7 although X-rays on his ankle were negative. It's unclear if he is day-to-day or a little worse than that. Jedd Gyorko will start at third base and hit eighth.

Canha went 3-for-6 with an RBI and three runs in Tuesday's blowout win over the Astros.

Canha singled and scored in the first inning, did the same in the second and did it a third time in the sixth, scoring three of his team's 21 runs on the day. He now owns an excellent .337/.449/.584 slash line over his last 24 games.

Jimenez went 1-for-4 with a grand slam home run in Tuesday's 7-3 win over the Royals.

Jimenez gave the White Sox all the runs they needed in the first inning, belting the first grand slam of his career. He's fought through a couple of injuries and rookie growing pains to hit 25 home runs in 107 games.

Lewis went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's win over the Reds.

Lewis played right field in his major-league debut and plated Seattle's first run with a 426-foot shot in the fifth inning. The 24-year-old was called up from the minors Monday after slashing .263/.342/.398 with 11 homers, 62 RBI and 152 strikeouts in 122 games with Double-A Arkansas this season.

Reyes went 1-for-2 with four RBI and a walk in the Indians' 8-0 victory over the Angels on Tuesday.

The 24-year-old wound up driving in half of his team's runs for the game, cranking a three-run double in the third inning before adding a sacrifice fly in the seventh. He's had a prolific power-hitting campaign in 2019, cranking 34 homers, 17 doubles and driving in 74 runs despite a pedestrian .250 batting average across 497 plate appearances between the Padres and Indians.
