Del Castillo went 2-for-4 with an RBI in Tuesday's 5-3 win over San Francisco.

Del Castillo delivered a two-out, run-scoring single in the bottom of the ninth, which set the table for an eventual walk-off, three-run home run by Ketel Marte to complete the come-from-behind win. Del Castillo, who had singled earlier in the game, snapped an 0-for-16 run that dropped his average below .200. He's spent most of his time as the designated hitter this season and has eight starts at catcher. Del Castillo could get more opportunities behind the plate going forward after the Diamondbacks placed James McCann (quad) on the injured list Tuesday. Arizona called up catcher Aramis Garcia from Triple-A Reno to share the backup duties with Del Castillo.

Benintendi went 1-for-4 with one RBI and one stolen base in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Mariners.

Benintendi delivered an RBI single in the ninth inning for the go-ahead run. He promptly stole second but was left on base. The veteran outfielder hasn't used his speed as much this season, and he's primarily worked as the designated hitter. He's batting .239 with a .673 OPS, three home runs, 20 RBI, 17 runs scored, seven doubles and two triples through 44 contests. His theft Tuesday was his first attempt of the year.

Andujar went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Tuesday's 5-4 loss to the Dodgers.

Andujar is up to five homers this season, three of which he's hit during his eight-game hitting streak. In that span, he's gone 11-for-32 (.344) with seven RBI and six runs scored. The 31-year-old has made himself a key part of the Padres' lineup this season, batting .299 with an .846 OPS, 17 RBI, 15 runs scored, one stolen base, 11 doubles and two triples through 139 plate appearances. He's batted second in each of the last three contests as San Diego attempts to capitalize on his hot bat higher in the order.

Rooker went 2-for-4 with a home run, a walk, two total runs and three total RBI in a 14-6 win against the Angels on Tuesday.

Rooker knocked in a run with a single in the third inning and added a two-run homer in the eighth. The long ball was his fifth through 17 games in May. Rooker has collected six multi-hit games during the month and is batting .273 with 16 RBI.

Pederson went 4-for-5 with a double, a run and an RBI in Tuesday's 10-0 victory versus Colorado.

Pederson didn't start Tuesday, but he entered the game in the second inning as a pinch hitter for Andrew McCutchen. Pederson finished the contest and ended up with a season-high four hits -- one more than he had tallied over his previous 20 at-bats combined. The veteran DH is slashing .236/.356/.355 with three home runs, four doubles, 15 runs and 11 RBI through 135 plate appearances on the campaign.

Herrera went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run Tuesday in a 9-6 extra-inning win against the Pirates.

Herrera was 0-for-4 with two strikeouts when he stepped up to the plate with runners on the corners and no outs in the bottom of the 10th inning. He fell behind in the count 0-2 before clubbing a curveball over the outfield wall for a walk-off home run. Herrera extended his hitting streak to seven games with the blast, and he's batting .267 (8-for-30) with five RBI and four runs over that span.

Tena went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored during the Nationals' 9-6 win over the Mets on Tuesday.

Tena tied the game at 5-5 after taking Nolan McLean deep to left-center field for a solo homer. It was the third home run of the season for Tena, who is slashing .247/.307/.441 with 13 RBI and 16 runs scored across 101 plate appearances in 2026.

Diaz was removed from Tuesday's game against the Orioles after getting hit on the hand by a pitch, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.

Diaz went 2-for-3 with a homer and an RBI double before taking a 94-mph fastball off his hand in the eighth inning, forcing him out of the game. He'll likely be sent in for X-rays to determine whether he suffered a fracture, and the Rays should offer an update on his status in the near future. Ryan Vilade could be in line to pick up a start at first base or DH if Diaz is unable to play Wednesday.

Canzone is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the White Sox.

The White Sox are sending southpaw Anthony Kay to the mound to start, so the left-handed-hitting Canzone will take a seat to begin the game. Rob Refsnyder starts as the designated hitter, batting leadoff.

Schwarber (illness) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Reds.

Schwarber is under the weather and will miss a second consecutive start. He's considered day-to-day, but with an afternoon game Wednesday and a team off day Thursday, the Phillies might elect to hold Schwarber out until Friday versus the Guardians just to be safe. Trea Turner is getting a start at designated hitter Tuesday, and Edmundo Sosa is covering shortstop.
