Soderstrom went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double and two total RBI in Wednesday's 6-0 win against Houston.

Soderstrom and Shea Langeliers each had a double and a homer in the contest as they combined for all four of the Athletics' extra-base hits. Soderstrom's home run was a 395-foot solo shot in the seventh inning that capped the scoring in the contest. The 23-year-old has enjoyed a breakout campaign, slashing .280/.349/.480 with 25 home runs, 74 runs, 93 RBI and eight stolen bases through 154 games.

Langeliers went 4-for-4 with a home run, a double, two total runs and two total RBI in Wednesday's 6-0 win against Houston.

The Astros were unable to get Langeliers out, as he fell a triple shy of the cycle. The talented backstop notched an RBI with a ground-rule double in the fifth inning and later belted a solo homer to left field in the seventh. Langeliers had been struggling a bit coming into the contest, but he's enjoyed a marvelous second half overall, batting .308 with 19 homers, 17 doubles, 43 runs, 39 RBI and three stolen bases over 54 games since the All-Star break.

Brown (12-9) took the loss against the Athletics on Wednesday, allowing four runs on six hits and two walks while striking out five batters over five innings.

Brown got through two scoreless innings before giving up a run in the third. He was down just 1-0 entering the fifth frame, but the A's tagged him for three runs in what proved to be his final inning of work. Wednesday marked the first time Brown has given up more than two earned runs since he yielded three against Seattle on July 20 (his first start out of the All-Star break). It remains to be seen if he'll get a chance to pitch in the postseason, as Houston currently sits one game out of the final AL wild-card spot.

Scherzer (5-5) took the loss Wednesday against the Red Sox, surrendering four runs on 10 hits and no walks while striking out five over five innings.

The veteran was hit hard from the start, giving up five straight hits in the first inning that plated three runs before later serving up a solo homer to Masataka Yoshida in the fifth. The 10 hits marked a season high allowed for Scherzer, who has now been roughed up for 25 runs in 25 innings across his last six starts. The 41-year-old right-hander has struggled badly down the stretch and will finish the regular season with a 5.19 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 82:23 K:BB across 85 frames.

Severino (8-11) earned the win over Houston on Wednesday, allowing three hits and issuing one walk while striking out five batters over 6.1 scoreless innings.

Things haven't always been smooth for Severino in his first season with the A's, but in the likely case that this was his final appearance of the campaign, he went out on a high note. The veteran righty limited the Astros to four baserunners -- two of which reached in the first inning -- and at one point retired 10 consecutive batters before giving up a double on his final pitch of the night. Severino improved his record to 8-11 after it sat at 2-11 entering the All-Star break. If this was indeed his final outing, he'll finish 2025 with a 4.54 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 124:50 K:BB over 162.2 frames spanning 29 starts.

Crochet (18-5) picked up the win Wednesday against Toronto, allowing three hits and striking out six without a walk across eight scoreless innings.

Crochet was dominant throughout, finishing his night by retiring the final 10 batters he faced to lock in his fourth straight victory. It marked the fourth time this season the left-hander has worked at least eight frames. Crochet also solidified his place atop MLB's strikeout leaderboard with 255 punchouts on the year. The 26-year-old closes his first regular season in Boston with a stellar 2.59 ERA and 1.03 WHIP across 205.1 innings, ranking second only to Max Fried in wins while establishing himself as one of the premier arms in baseball.

Judge went 3-for-4 with two home runs, a walk and four RBI in Wednesday's 8-1 victory over the White Sox.

Judge put the Yankees on the board with a three-run blast in the second inning -- his 50th homer of the season -- before adding another long ball in the eighth to cap off his night and record his seventh multi-homer game of the season. The 33-year-old has now reached base safely in 13 straight games, batting .439 with 17 walks in that stretch, and he continues to make history, becoming just the fourth player ever to record four seasons with at least 50 home runs. Judge still leads MLB with a .328 batting average and sports a monstrous 1.136 OPS to go with 109 RBI, 133 runs, 29 doubles and 12 stolen bases across 662 plate appearances. The superstar remains locked in a two-man MVP race with Cal Raleigh as Judge chases his third MVP award in the last four seasons.

Cannon (4-10) took the loss Wednesday against the Yankees, surrendering five runs on six hits and a walk while striking out six over 4.1 innings.

Cannon entered in the first inning after opener Fraser Ellard walked the bases loaded, and he managed to escape the jam quickly by striking out Paul Goldschmidt. However, the right-hander quickly unraveled, giving up back-to-back multi-run frames that included a three-run homer from Aaron Judge in the second. The long ball marked the seventh Cannon has allowed in his last five starts, a brutal stretch in which he's posted a 13.50 ERA across 18.2 innings while giving up at least five runs in every outing and taking three losses. The 25-year-old now owns a 5.87 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 84:38 K:BB across 102.2 innings this season.

Fried (19-5) picked up the win Wednesday against the White Sox, allowing one run on four hits and two walks while striking out seven over seven innings.

Coming off arguably his best start of the year, when he blanked Baltimore over seven innings while striking out 13, the left-hander produced another gem Wednesday. Fried gave up back-to-back singles followed by a sacrifice fly to Lenyn Sosa in the second inning, but he was nearly flawless otherwise, generating 12 whiffs and notching at least seven strikeouts for the 14th time this season. The victory was the 31-year-old's seventh in his last eight starts and his sixth straight, securing him the top of MLB's wins leaderboard with 19. Fried finishes his first regular season with the Yankees having posted a 2.86 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 189:51 K:BB across 195.1 innings, cementing himself as one of most consistent arms fantasy managers could find.

Jansen secured the save Wednesday against the Royals, striking out two in a clean ninth inning.

Jansen posted his 28th save of the season, and he hasn't permitted a single hit over his last nine appearances. Through 59 innings, the veteran right-hander has a 2.64 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 54:19 K:BB while blowing just one save opportunity. Jansen is headed for unrestricted free agency this winter, and he'll soon set his sights toward trying to become only the third member of the illustrious 500-save club along with Mariano Rivera and Trevor Hoffman. Jansen has 475 saves for his career.
