Anderson went 2-for-4 with two doubles and two runs scored in Saturday's 11-5 loss to the Tigers.

Anderson went seven games without an extra-base hit before his two doubles Saturday. He came around to score on Jose Abreu singles. He leads the White Sox with 46 runs over 68 games. The shortstop extended a relatively quiet hitting streak to six games, during which he is slashing .296/.296/.370.

Wendle is on the bench for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

The 31-year-old has hit a lowly .177 off left-handed pitching in 2021, so he understandably gets a day off as the Rays face Robbie Ray. Wendle has struggled overall recently, hitting .156 with just one RBI in his last nine games. Wander Franco gets the start at third base Sunday.

The Braves recalled Arcia from Triple-A Gwinnett following Saturday's game against the Marlins.

The 26-year-old went 1-for-11 in four games with the Brewers before being dealt to Atlanta on April 6. He has excelled at Triple-A this season, hitting .303 with 13 homers and 28 RBI in 201 at-bats. Arcia has played 533 of his 542 career games on the left side of the infield, but Atlanta hopes to give him opportunities in left field, which has been an offensive void since Marcell Ozuna (finger) left the team. Arcia played left field in his last week with Triple-A Gwinnett, per David O'Brien of The Athletic.

Correa went 2-for-2 with two walks, a home run and two RBI in Saturday's 3-2 win over Cleveland.

He led off the fourth inning with a solo shot as part of an impressive overall performance. Correa has been on fire since the beginning of June, slashing .340/.463/.670 with eight of his 16 homers on the year, 25 runs and 25 RBI in 27 games. The 26-year-old picked the perfect time to stay healthy and put together his best numbers since 2017 with free agency looming in the offseason.

Story went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Cardinals.

Story slammed a three-run homer off Genesis Cabrera to give Colorado the lead in the seventh inning. The blast netted all three of the Rockies' runs in the win. The 28-year-old produced his seventh multi-hit game over his last 15 appearances. He is slashing .255/.328/.445 with 39 runs and 39 RBI. The dual power-speed threat has 10 long balls and 14 stolen bases. He is one of 10 players that have double-digit home runs and steals this season.

Ahmed went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, an additional run, a walk and a strikeout in a 6-5 loss to San Francisco on Saturday.

Ahmed singled in the first, walked and scored in the third, and smacked a two-run home run in the fourth to tie the game 4-4. It was only Ahmed's second home run in 72 games this season, as the shortstop is slashing .224/.294/.332.

Turner (finger) isn't starting Saturday's game against the Dodgers.

Turner took swings ahead of Saturday's matchup to determine whether he'd be able to play, but he'll ultimately be held out of the lineup for a third straight game. It's not yet clear whether he could be available off the bench, but Alcides Escobar will start at shortstop and bat seventh.

Turner (finger) will take some pregame swings to determine if he can play Saturday against the Dodgers, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

There's been no further update on the condition of Turner's finger, which still had swelling Friday after he jammed it Wednesday afternoon. If Turner can't go, Humberto Arteaga may start at shortstop again. It's also possible that Alcides Escobar, whom the Nationals traded for Friday, could be called up to start.

Edman went 2-for-4 with an RBI single, a walk, a stolen base and two runs in a win over the Rockies on Friday.

Edman's surge continued a day after he laced his third triple of the season, and he extended his hitting streak to four games in the process. The 26-year-old has a pair of multi-efforts during that span as well, helping lead to four RBI.

Adames went 3-for-3 with a home run, an additional run scored and a walk in Friday's win over the Pirates.

Adames was one of three Brewers that went deep against Pittsburgh starter JT Brubaker. The shortstop has been on a power tear of late with four homers over his last eight games. He also has hit safely in all but two games during that eight-game stretch while plating 11 runs, scoring eight of his own and posting a strong 8:6 BB:K to go along with a .379 average. It's safe to say this has been one of Adames' most productive stretches of the entire campaign.
