Perdomo went 1-for-3 in Tuesday's 4-0 loss to the Dodgers.

Perdomo collected one of the three singles Arizona batters managed to produce in a second consecutive shutout. The young shortstop endured a brutal August, batting .137, but Perdomo has been better in September. The 22-year-old rookie is 8-for-27 (.296) in 12 games this month.

Swanson went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and an additional RBI in a 5-1 win against the Giants on Tuesday.

Swanson gave Atlanta the lead with a two-run home run off San Francisco starter Jakob Junis in the third inning and added an RBI single in the ninth as an insurance run. After opening September quietly, the 28-year-old has gone 10-for-31 with three long balls over his last seven games. Swanson isn't on track to reach last season's mark of 27 homers, but he has a shot at his first 20-20 season with 20 home runs and 17 stolen bases in 142 games.

Bogaerts went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Tuesday's extra-inning loss against the Yankees.

Bogaerts lifted a fly ball 332 feet off Pesky's Pole at Fenway Park with nobody on base to put the Red Sox on top, 4-3. The solo shot was Bogaerts' 14th on the season and second in the month of September. He has been hot at the dish, batting .436 (17-for-39) this month.

Edman went 2-for-4 with an RBI, two stolen bases and a run scored in Tuesday's 8-4 loss to the Brewers.

Edman was the only Cardinal with a multi-hit effort in this contest, which was his fourth in his last five games. He's added three steals in that span and is now 29-for-32 on the basepaths this season, ranking fifth in the majors in steals. The versatile 27-year-old's hot hitting has his batting average up to .270, its highest point since July 3. He's added a .743 OPS, 13 home runs, 55 RBI, 90 runs scored, 29 doubles and four triples through 138 contests.

Diaz (groin) went 2-for-4 in a 6-3 win Tuesday in Detroit.

Diaz was activated from the injured list before Tuesday's game after missing 23 games. Batting seventh and serving as the designated hitter, he singled in the fourth and seventh innings. It's unlikely that he'll see much time at DH down the stretch, as both Yordan Alvarez and Trey Mancini are better suited for that role and Diaz can play numerous positions.

Adames went 2-for-3 with a double, two walks, two RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 8-4 win over the Cardinals.

Adames has multiple RBI in three straight games, and he's drawn at least one walk in each of those contests. It's the fourth time this year he's walked in three consecutive games. The shortstop's hot bat of late has lifted his season slash line to .234/.298/.463 with 28 home runs, 85 RBI, 75 runs scored, five stolen bases and 26 doubles through 120 contests overall.

Velazquez exited Tuesday's game against the Guardians with a knee injury, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

Velazquez suffered the injury while he fielded a groundball during the fourth inning and was replaced by a pinch hitter in the following frame. The 28-year-old should be considered day-to-day heading into Wednesday's series finale in Cleveland.

Correa went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double and three total RBI in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Royals.

Correa found his success against Royals lefty Kris Bubic, producing an RBI double in the third inning and a two-run homer in the fifth. The homer was Correa's 20th of the year, making this the sixth time in eight seasons the shortstop has reached that level. He's done it with a power surge lately, going yard five times through 11 games in September. The 27-year-old's added 57 RBI, 62 runs scored, 19 doubles and a triple while slashing .280/.357/.463 through 116 contests.

Fletcher (hand) went 1-for-2 with a single in a 3-1 loss Tuesday in Cleveland.

Fletcher was removed from Saturday's game in Houston after being hit by a pitch and missed the last two games. He did not start Tuesday but pinch hit for Andrew Velazquez in the fifth inning and remained in the game, playing shortstop. Despite his appearance off the bench, Fletcher doesn't appear to be fully past the hand issue as he bunted in both his plate appearances Tuesday and appeared unable to take full swings, per Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register.

Velazquez was removed from Tuesday's game at Cleveland with an apparent injury, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Velazquez singled in his lone at-bat before being replaced by a pinch hitter during the fifth inning, as he appeared to suffer an injury while he fielded a groundball in the previous frame. David Fletcher, who was out of Tuesday's lineup for a third straight game due to a bruised hand, has entered the game at shortstop for the Halos.
