  • Joe Ryan SP | MIN

    Twins' Joe Ryan: Seven Ks in third loss

    Ryan (7-3) took the loss Friday against the Brewers, giving up three runs on three hits and three walks in 5.1 innings. He struck out seven.

    It was a rather pedestrian effort overall from Ryan, but he did fan at least seven for the seventh time this year. Ryan has done an excellent job of limiting hits, as he's allowed five or fewer on 13 occasions among his 15 outings, but he's now walked multiple batters in four straight appearances and five of his last six. Over his last 10 outings (58.1 frames), Ryan owns a strong 2.62 ERA, 0.89 WHIP and 68:17 K:BB, and he next projects to face the Mariners at home.

  • Matt Thaiss C | BOS

    Rays' Matt Thaiss: Drives in four runs

    Thaiss went 3-for-4 with a walk, a double and four RBI in Friday's 14-8 win over Detroit.

    Thaiss gave the Rays a four-run lead in the first inning with a two-run double before driving in two more runs on separate RBI singles in the sixth and eighth. It was Thaiss's fifth multi-hit game and second multi-RBI contest this season. Since being acquired by the Rays in late May, he has gone 9-for-28 (.321) with four runs scored, five walks and five RBI.

  • Yandy Diaz DH | TB

    Rays' Yandy Diaz: Clubs two solo homers

    Diaz went 3-for-5 with two solo home runs in Friday's 14-8 win over the Tigers.

    Diaz set the tone with a leadoff home run in the first inning before tacking on another solo shot in the fifth to extend the Rays' lead to six runs. Diaz is in the midst of an 11-game hitting streak and has reached base safely in each of his last 15 games. He has a scorching .468 batting average (22-for-47) with 10 runs scored, four home runs and 10 RBI during his current hitting streak.

  • Shane Baz SP | BAL

    Rays' Shane Baz: Comes away with second straight win

    Baz (7-3) earned the win against the Tigers on Friday, allowing five runs on four hits and four walks while striking out six across 5.1 innings.

    Baz kept the Tigers off the board through the first two frames before yielding a three-run homer to Riley Greene in the third. Baz was tagged for two more runs in the sixth after being lifted, but he got enough run support to come away with his second straight win. Baz's 4.79 ERA (across 82.2 innings) is seventh highest among qualified starters in the American League this season, but his seven wins are tied for sixth in the AL. He'll look to make it three wins in a row in his next start, tentatively slated for next week on the road against the Royals.

  • Colt Keith 3B | DET

    Tigers' Colt Keith: Smacks two-run homer late

    Keith went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Friday's 14-8 loss to Tampa Bay.

    Keith cut into the Rays' lead with a two-run long ball to right field in the ninth inning. Keith has had an up-and-down 2025 campaign, but he has been better in June with a .279/.360/.488 slash line with three doubles, two home runs and eight RBI in 50 plate appearances. He has yet to log a steal after swiping seven bags across 148 games in 2024.

  • Riley Greene LF | DET

    Tigers' Riley Greene: Belts two homers vs. Tampa Bay

    Greene went 3-for-4 with one walk, two home runs and three RBI in Friday's 14-8 loss to the Rays.

    Greene got the Tigers on the board in the third inning with a three-run homer to center field, and he tacked on another run in the eighth with a solo shot to right. It was Greene's third multi-homer game of the season, and his 17 homers are tied with Junior Caminero for fourth most in the American League. Greene has reached base safely in 11 consecutive games, and over that span he has gone 16-for-43 (.372) with eight runs scored, four doubles, four home runs and 17 RBI.

  • Jack Flaherty SP | DET

    Tigers' Jack Flaherty: Clobbered for eight runs

    Flaherty (5-8) took the loss against the Rays on Friday, allowing eight runs on six hits and three walks while striking out three across 2.1 innings.

    It was another rough outing for Flaherty, who gave up four runs in the first inning before being tagged for four more in the third. He has yielded 15 earned runs over his last two outings, which overshadows the four consecutive quality starts that he logged prior to his recent struggles. Flaherty is projected to make his next start against the Athletics at home next week.

  • Gary Sanchez C | MIL

    Orioles' Gary Sanchez: Drives in two runs

    Sanchez went 2-for-3 with a two-run single in Friday's 5-3 win over the Yankees.

    Sanchez got the Orioles on the board early with a two-run single in the first inning. He has started in four games since returning from a wrist injury June 14, and over that span he has gone 6-for-14 (.429) with five runs scored, two home runs and seven RBI.

  • Felix Bautista RP | BAL

    Orioles' Felix Bautista: Collects 16th save

    Bautista struck out two batters in a perfect ninth inning to come away with the save in Friday's 5-3 win over the Yankees.

    Bautista needed 17 pitches (11 strikes) to convert the save opportunity, forcing a flyout from Trent Grisham before striking out Aaron Judge and Jazz Chisholm. Bautista has converted on each of his last nine save opportunities, and over that span he sports a 0.82 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 19:6 K:BB across 11 innings. His 16 saves are tied with Emmanuel Clase and Trevor Megill for eighth most in the majors this season.

  • Orioles' Tomoyuki Sugano: Comes away with no-decision

    Sugano did not factor into the decision in Friday's win against the Yankees, allowing three runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out four across 3.2 innings.

    Sugano found himself in hot water in the first inning after issuing two walks and a single to load the bases, but he managed to limit the damage to two runs. He gave up another run on an Aaron Judge solo homer in the third, and Sugano wasn't able to make it through the fourth after tossing 89 pitches (56 strikes). Sugano has fallen short of five innings in each of his last three starts and now sports a 3.55 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 50:17 K:BB across 83.2 innings this season. He's tentatively slated to make his next start against the Rangers at home next week.
