Stripling (back) completed a live batting practice session Tuesday, MLB.com reports.

The veteran right-hander presumably got through the session without any issues, and it's the third box he's checked off within the last week after also completing bullpen sessions last Wednesday and Saturday. Assuming Stripling doesn't have any residual effects from Tuesday's activity in coming days, he remains a candidate to be activated at some point during the final series of the season that begins Friday against the Mariners at T-Mobile Park.

Langeliers went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and two runs in a win over the Rangers on Tuesday.

Langeliers crossed home plate both times on base, scoring on Tyler Soderstrom's first-inning double and Zack Gelof's sixth-inning go-ahead sacrifice fly. The hot-hitting backstop is finishing the regular season on a tear, as he now boasts a six-game hitting streak as well as nine extra-base hits, 14 RBI and an .825 OPS across the 88 plate appearances covering his last 23 games.

Wilson went 1-for-3 with a walk-off RBI single and a walk in a win over the Rangers on Tuesday.

The rookie drove home Zack Gelof with one out in the ninth inning to snap a 4-4 tie and send the Athletics home winners in their penultimate night game at Oakland Coliseum. Wilson now has singles in three straight games, but he's shown very little pop since his late-August return from a long IL stint with just four extra-base hits across 86 plate appearances.

Gelof went 1-for-3 with an RBI sacrifice fly, a stolen base and a run in a win over the Rangers on Tuesday.

Gelof snapped a 3-3 tie in the sixth inning with his sacrifice fly, which plated Shea Langeliers. He eventually scored the game-winning run on Jacob Wilson's walk-off single in the penultimate night game for the Athletics at Oakland Coliseum. The eventful night was an extension of a productive all-around month for Gelof despite some persistent contact issues, as he's generated a .278 average, .715 OPS, eight extra-base hits, seven RBI, five steals and nine runs across 84 September plate appearances.

Soderstrom went 2-for-4 with an RBI double and another two-bagger in a win over the Rangers on Tuesday.

The rookie drove home Shea Langeliers in the first inning with his first double and later added his ninth double of the season. Soderstrom's bat has caught fire after he went 0-for-7 over his first two games back from the injured list, as he's hitting .471 (8-for-17) with four extra-base hits, five RBI, two walks and three runs over his last five games.

Altuve is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Mariners, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

Altuve will get a breather one day after the Astros wrapped up another division title. Shay Whitcomb will handle second base and bat seventh Wednesday.

DeLoach went 1-for-3 with a double and a run scored Tuesday against the Angels.

DeLoach has had two stints in the majors this season, the most recent beginning Sept. 1. He's struggled to a .194 batting average while striking out 30.3 percent of the time in a part-time role, and Tuesday's double marked his first extra-base hit in that span.

Tucker is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mariners, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

Tucker is one of the regulars getting a day off after the Astros clinched the American League West title Tuesday. Jason Heyward will play right field and bat sixth Wednesday.

Raley is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.

He'll be on the bench for the second day in a row while the Astros send another lefty (Yusei Kikuchi) to the bump. Justin Turner will cover first base once again in place of the lefty-hitting Raley.

Rojas is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.

The left-handed-hitting Rojas will take a seat for the second day in a row while Houston sends another southpaw (Yusei Kikuchi) to the bump. Dylan Moore will spell Rojas at third base.
