Xander Bogaerts SS | SD
Red Sox's Xander Bogaerts: Collects three doubles
Bogaerts went 3-for-5 with three doubles, two runs and an RBI in Wednesday's win over Atlanta.
Bogaerts went deep in two of his previous three games, but he did his damage with two-baggers Wednesday, collecting a trio of doubles for his 22nd multi-hit game of the season. The star shortstop's fifth-inning double was particularly important as it gave the Red Sox a temporary 5-3 lead. Bogaerts is tied for third in MLB with 20 doubles on the campaign while slashing an impressive .325/.387/.571 with 13 homers, 41 RBI and four stolen bases.

Rockies' Trevor Story: Big day at dish
Story went 2-for-3 with two doubles, two walks, two RBI, two stolen bases and three runs scored in Wednesday's 8-7 win over San Diego.
Story did a little bit of almost everything in an impressive performance at the plate. The star shortstop went 4-for-9 with three doubles, three RBI, five runs scored and a pair of steals in the three-game series versus San Diego. He's slashing .251/.332/.415 with five home runs, 11 steals, 26 RBI and 32 runs scored across 235 plate appearances overall.

Adalberto Mondesi SS | BOS
Royals' Adalberto Mondesi: Homers in return
Mondesi (hamstring) went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-5 loss to Detroit.
The shortstop missed two weeks with a hamstring strain. In limited time this year, Mondesi has three homers, six RBI, three runs scored and a stolen base. The speedster will likely take on an everyday role going forward if he can stay healthy, which will leave Nicky Lopez and Hanser Alberto as bench options.

Nick Ahmed SS | TEX
Diamondbacks' Nick Ahmed: Sitting Wednesday
Ahmed is not starting Wednesday's game against the Giants.
The day off comes at a good time for Ahmed, who's hitless in three consecutive games and in six of his last eight. He has also failed to draw a walk in that stretch. Josh Rojas gets the start at shortstop Wednesday.
