Estevez (3-5) was tagged with the loss in relief Sunday against the Diamondbacks after giving up the decisive run while tossing two-thirds of an inning.

Estevez quickly retired Ketel Marte and Josh Rojas through flyouts, but he gave up the game-sealing homer to Josh VanMeter, who went deep for the sixth time this year. It was an unfortunate end of the year for Estevez, who went 11-for-17 in save chances while posting a 4.28 ERA with a 1.49 WHIP through 61 innings (63 appearances) this season.

Jackson got the save in Sunday's 10-3 win against the Brewers, allowing two runs on four hits with three strikeouts in three innings.

Jackson entered in the seventh inning with Los Angeles ahead 10-1 and went the rest of the way to earn the save by virtue of pitching the final three innings of the victory. The 25-year-old rookie saw action in only three big-league games this season, finishing with an 0-1 record, a 2.31 ERA, a 1.37 WHIP and a 10:6 K:BB in 11.2 innings.

Jackson was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday.

Jackson was sent to Triple-A on Sept. 22 but will rejoin the Giants after spending the 10-day minimum in the minors. The 34-year-old has a 3.74 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 28:12 K:BB over 21.2 innings this season and has an outside chance at a spot on the postseason roster.

The Giants optioned Long to Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday.

He'll head back to the minors after a two-day stint with the big club, during which he didn't appear in a game. The Giants called up reliever Jay Jackson from Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Cousins (biceps) reported to Triple-A Nashville for a rehab appearance Sunday, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Cousins is then expected to rejoin the Brewers and continue to face live hitters in hopes of being activated ahead of the NLDS, which begins Friday. The 27-year-old has a 2.70 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 44:19 K:BB over 30 innings this season, and he could play a significant role in the playoffs with setup man Devin Williams out indefinitely with a fractured hand.

White was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

White was promoted from Triple-A on Saturday and will return there after delivering a scoreless frame in the win over the Brewers. The 26-year-old has been a solid piece for the Dodgers this season with a 3.66 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 49:17 K:BB across 46.2 innings.

Jackson was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

Jackson was sent to Triple-A on Sept. 10 and will rejoin the Dodgers ahead of Game 162. The 25-year-old has appeared in only two major-league games this season and has given up one earned run on six hits with a 7:6 K:BB over 8.2 innings.

The Rockies recalled Lawrence from Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday.

The righty, after spending a month in the minors, will be available out of the bullpen for the regular-season finale against Arizona.

Webb recorded a one-out save Saturday against the Mets, allowing two walks and tossing a wild pitch.

Webb clinched his first save of the season Saturday as he recorded the final out of the game, but it wasn't a relaxed outing by any means -- he walked Michael Conforto and Pete Alonso to load the bases before retiring Jonathan Villar on a groundout. Webb has now tossed two straight scoreless outings, and if he doesn't pitch Sunday, he'll end the season with a 4.19 ERA over 34.1 innings.

Davidson (forearm) will make a rehab start with Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday.

Davidson has been sidelined by the forearm injury since mid-June, but he appears to be in the final stages of his rehab work. The 25-year-old is already eligible to be activated from the 60-day injured list, though there's been no indication whether he'll be an option for the postseason roster once fully ramped up.
