In Sunday's marathon of a game against the Cardinals, Mets shortstop Ruben Tejada went 3 for 6 with a double, two walks and a RBI.

With the three-hit outing, Tejada extended his current hit streak to seven games. Over that stretch, he is hitting .367 with 11 hits, two doubles, a home run and four RBI.

Marlins second baseman Miguel Rojas left Sunday's game against the Phillies due to stomach nausea. He is listed as day to day.

Rojas went 2 for 3 with one RBI before leaving Sunday's game.

Indians rookie shortstop Francisco Lindor posted the first three-hit game of his career in Saturday's 9-4 win over the Reds. Lindor singled twice, doubled and scored two runs, boosting his season average up to .241.

Lindor has gotten off to a rather quiet start to his young career, but he has been turning things around lately. Over his last 10 games, Lindor is batting .293 with a home run and three RBI. 

Diamondbacks shortstop Cliff Pennington hit a solo home run during a pinch-hit opportunity in Saturday's loss to the Giants.

Pennington is hitting .411 with seven hits, a home run and five RBI over his last 17 at-bats.

Astros shortstop Carlos Correa went 2 for 4 with a home run and two RBI in Saturday's loss to the Rangers.

Correa hit a two-run blast, his eighth of the season, in the ninth inning to bring the game within a run, but his team wouldn't get any closer than that.

Correa is hitting .357 with five hits, a double, a home run and three RBI over his last four games.

Diamondbacks second baseman Chris Owings hit his third home run of the season during Friday's 6-5 loss to the Giants.

Owings hit the solo shot off Matt Cain in the fourth inning. He finished the game 2 for 5 with one RBI. Owings is hitting .231 with one home run and two RBI in his last 12 games.

The Marlins placed second baseman Dee Gordon on the 15-day disabled list Friday, reports MLB.com.

The move was made retroactive to July 12. Gordon is suffering from a dislocated left thumb. He is hitting .338 with 33 stolen bases in 84 games this season.

Marlins second baseman Dee Gordon, who dislocated his thumb on Saturday, might avoid the disabled list because of the rest he will get due to the All-Star break, per the Miami Herald.

Gordon could return for the Marlins as soon as July 20 against the Diamondbacks.

Marlins' second baseman Dee Gordon isn't in the starting lineup for Sunday's game, snapping a 27-start streak. 

Gordon has missed just four starts this year, but he's sidelined after dislocating his thumb in Saturday's game. 

Miguel Rojas replaces Gordon at second. It's his first start of the season at second base and just his third career start at the position. 

Giants All-Star shortstop Brandon Crawford had a big night at the plate on Saturday. Crawford went 3 for 4 with a triple, an RBI and two runs scored in the 8-5 win over the Phillies.

Crawford tied the game at 1-1 with a run-scoring triple in the second inning. It was his fourth three-bagger and 51st RBI of the season.
