Perdomo went 1-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base, two RBI and one run scored in Friday's 6-5 win over the Rockies.

Perdomo fought off a 3-2 cutter from Alex Colome and dumped it into right field, plating the game-tying and go-ahead runs in the bottom of the eighth. An inning later, he made a lunging play in the field to secure the win for Arizona. It was a hopeful sequence for the young shortstop whose batting average hovers is at .201 through 96 games. He also has a DRS of minus-6, ranking him as one of the Diamondbacks' worst defenders this year.

Bogaerts went 4-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored in Fridays' 7-4 win over the Royals.

All four of Bogaerts' hits were singles. He scored in the fourth inning and drove in a run in the fifth to help build Boston's lead. The shortstop has just three multi-hit efforts in his last 13 games, but he's batting .327 (16-for-49) in that span. For the season, he's up to a .315/.388/.459 slash line with nine home runs, 47 RBI, 59 runs scored and seven stolen bases through 103 contests.

Fletcher, who is not in Friday's lineup, is dealing with a sore foot but is expected to be OK for Saturday's game, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Fletcher was out of Thursday's lineup but then got hit on the foot by a pitch in a pinch-hit situation. Phil Gosselin got the start in his absence Friday.

Fletcher is not in Friday's lineup against the Mariners.

Fletcher wasn't in Thursday's lineup either but he appeared off the bench. Luis Rengifo will start at the keystone while Phil Gosselin starts at the hot corner.

Diaz, who is not in Friday's lineup against the Guardians, is day-to-day with a sore left ring finger, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Imaging on the finger revealed no fractures, and manager Dusty Baker said Diaz might be available to pinch hit Friday. Diaz is hitting .306 with three home runs over his last 10 games.

Duran is not in the lineup for Friday's game versus the White Sox.

Duran is 4-for-31 over his last nine contests and will head to the bench for Friday's contest. Josh Smith will take over at third base.

Witt is out of the lineup for Friday's game versus the Red Sox, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

Witt is 4-for-8 with a home run, two RBI, three runs and a stolen base in the past two games but will receive Friday off. Nicky Lopez will shift to shortstop while Michael Massey starts at the keystone.

Allen went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and a run in a win over the Angels on Thursday.

The young shortstop has hit safely in five of his last eight starts, although he's still carrying just a .197/.261/.276 slash line for the season. Allen does have three doubles over that eight-game span, and seven of his first eight extra-base hits at the big-league level have been two-baggers.

Luciano (back) started a rehab assignment in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League on Thursday, going 1-for-2 with a run and an RBI in his first game action since June 3.

Luciano looks to be nearing the finish line in his recovery from a lower-back strain, which has kept him out of action for the past two months. Before the injury surfaced, the Giants' top prospect was slashing .288/.360/.507 with eight home runs in 164 plate appearances at High-A Eugene.

Turner went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Thursday in a 5-3 win over the Giants.

Turner's seventh-inning solo shot traveled an estimated 419 feet to pad the Dodgers' lead. It was the shortstop's third homer in his past six games and his 18th of the campaign. Turner has already tied his career high -- which he set last season -- with 77 RBI, and he could make a run at the career-best 28 homers that he slugged in 2021 as well.
