Yankees' Aaron Judge: Reaches 55-homer mark
Judge went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a double, two walks and two total runs scored in Sunday's 7-4 win over the Athletics.
Judge is up to 55 homers this season, with four of them coming over his last nine games. In that span, he's added 12 RBI, three doubles and two stolen bases while going 11-for-28 (.393).

A potential return to the 60-homer mark would be tough to pull off with just six games left.

Gil (15-6) allowed four runs on five hits and three walks while striking out five over 5.1 innings to earn the win over the Athletics on Sunday.

Pablo Lopez SP | MIN
Twins' Pablo Lopez: Roughed up in defeat
Lopez (15-9) took the loss against Boston in the first game of Sunday's doubleheader, allowing seven earned runs on nine hits and one walk while striking out three in four innings.
Lopez was unable to limit the long ball in this one, as he allowed a pair of three-run home runs to Triston Casas, who finished the day with three homers. Lopez matched his season-worst mark with seven earned runs, allowing two or more home runs for the first time since June 18. Despite Sunday's setback, Lopez has still been excellent overall since the All-Star break, logging a 2.74 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 69:15 K:BB in 75.2 innings (12 starts) since the intermission. The 28-year-old is scheduled to make his final regular-season start next weekend against Baltimore.

Robles delivered a two-run single in the sixth inning and stole a base for the third straight game. He was hampered by a hand injury earlier in the week, but he's gone 3-for-9 with three RBI over his last games in which he's logged an at-bat. The speedy outfielder is up to 32 steals on 34 attempts this year while adding four home runs, 25 RBI, 38 runs scored and a .310/.385/.431 slash line over 86 games between the Mariners and the Nationals.

Raleigh went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a hit-by-pitch in Sunday's 6-5 loss to the Rangers.
Raleigh went deep off Andrew Heaney in the third inning. Over 19 games in September, Raleigh has gone 19-for-71 (.268) with four homers, 15 RBI and 10 runs scored. The catcher is up to 31 homers, 95 RBI, 67 runs scored, six stolen bases and a .214/.311/.424 slash line over 147 contests this season, giving him an outside chance at a 100-RBI campaign if he gets hot over the final week.

Andres Munoz RP | SEA
Mariners' Andres Munoz: Takes seventh loss
Munoz (3-7) allowed a run on two hits and struck out one over two-thirds of an inning, taking the loss Sunday versus the Rangers.
It wasn't a save situation, but Munoz wasn't able to keep the game tied at 5-5 in the ninth inning, instead taking a walk-off loss. He entered Sunday on a five-inning scoreless streak before this hiccup. Munoz has maintained a 2.16 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 76:26 K:BB over 58.1 innings while adding 22 saves in 27 chances and six holds this season.

Bryan Woo SP | SEA
Mariners' Bryan Woo: Fades in sixth inning
Woo allowed four runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out four over six innings in a no-decision versus the Rangers on Sunday.
Woo was cruising until the sixth inning. He then gave up four runs, including a three-run home run by Wyatt Langford, on five hits and a walk in that frame, and the Mariners' bullpen couldn't maintain the lead over the late innings. There's some signs of fatigue for Woo -- he's allowed four or more runs in three of his last five starts after doing that just once in his first 16 games this year. He's still at a 3.02 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 93:12 K:BB over 116.1 innings across 21 starts. His final start of the regular season is projected to be at home versus the Athletics.

Leody Taveras CF | BAL
Rangers' Leody Taveras: Homer, steal in win
Taveras went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a stolen base and three total runs scored in Sunday's 6-5 win over the Mariners.
This is the second time in six games he's recorded three hits, a homer and a steal in the same contests. Taveras tied the game in the seventh inning with a solo shot and then scored the winning run on Marcus Semien's walk-off single in the ninth. Taveras is hitting .265 (13-for-49) in September, lifting his season slash line to .231/.290/.359 with 12 homers, 21 steals, 44 RBI and 58 runs scored over a career-high 146 games.
