Willy Adames SS | SF
Giants' Willy Adames: Pops solo homer against Milwaukee
Adames went 2-for-3 with a solo homer and one walk in Tuesday's 8-3 loss to the Brewers.
Adames was the only Giants hitter to experience success against Brewers lefty Kyle Harrison. In three trips to the plate against Harrison, Adames walked, singled and belted a solo blast. It was Adames' ninth homer of the season and his sixth in the last 14 games. After a miserable start to the 2026 campaign, Adames is hitting .326 with 13 extra-base hits, including six homers, 18 RBI, 15 runs scored and a .989 OPS over his last 22 games. For the season, Adames is slashing .245/.285/.436 with nine long balls, 24 RBI, 29 runs scored, one stolen base and a 13:70 BB:K across 256 trips to the plate.

Trevor McDonald SP | SF
Giants' Trevor McDonald: Yields three runs in loss Tuesday
McDonald (2-3) took the loss Tuesday against the Brewers, allowing three runs on five hits and three walks with four strikeouts across five innings.
McDonald got into trouble in the first inning, walking each of the first two batters before serving up a three-run homer to Jake Bauers. The right-hander settled in the rest of the way, but the damage was done, and the San Francisco offense was unable to do much of anything against Kyle Harrison. In six starts this season, McDonald has a 4.50 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 31:9 K:BB across 34 innings, and he's lost three straight games. He's lined up to face the Cubs at Wrigley Field on Sunday.

Turang singled home a run and stole his 10th base of the season in the seventh inning before adding another RBI single to pad the lead in the eighth. After closing May on an 0-for-19 skid, Turang is 4-for-6 with four RBI and three walks to begin June. The second baseman is slashing .275/.405/.460 with seven home runs, 35 RBI, 46 runs scored, the 10 steals and a 45:58 BB:K across 249 plate appearances this season.

Since missing a few days with a back injury last month, Yelich is 16-for-57 (.281) with three home runs, 10 RBI, 13 runs scored and an 8:20 BB:K over his last 14 games.

Ramon Urias 3B | STL
Cardinals' Ramon Urias: Nearing rehab assignment
Urias (elbow) is expected to begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Memphis as soon as this weekend, Derrick Goold and Amber Winkler of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch report.
Urias is nearly ready for game action after being sidelined for the past month with right elbow lateral epicondylitis. The veteran infielder should be ready to rejoin the Cardinals' roster by mid-June, and Urias might see an uptick in playing time, given Nolan Gorman's struggles.

Kyle Harrison SP | MIL
Brewers' Kyle Harrison: Strikes out 12 against former team
Harrison (7-1) earned the win Tuesday against the Giants, allowing one run on four hits and two walks with 12 strikeouts across 5.2 innings.
After spending the first two and a half years of his big-league career with the Giants, the team that drafted him, this was Harrison's first start against his former team. He proceeded to shove again, as he has all season, generating 19 whiffs on 106 pitches while matching his season high with 12 strikeouts. Harrison's only blemish was a solo homer allowed to Willy Adames in the sixth inning. Over his last seven starts, Harrison has a microscopic 0.91 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 55:9 K:BB across 39.2 innings. The lefty's 31.9 percent strikeout rate is in the 96th percentile this season. For the year, Harrison owns a 1.57 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 73:16 K:BB across 57.1 innings.

Nathan Church CF | STL
Cardinals' Nathan Church: Slated for rehab games
Church (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Memphis on Thursday, Derrick Goold and Amber Winkler of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch report.
Church has been upping his activity level of late and now a rehab stint has been scheduled. He's missed less than two weeks with a left shoulder strain, so Church's rehab assignment should not be a lengthy one.

Bryce Harper 1B | PHI
Phillies' Bryce Harper: Slugs 14th homer
Harper went 1-for-3 with a walk, a two-run home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Padres.
The veteran slugger got the Phillies on the board by taking Randy Vasquez deep in the fourth inning before crossing the plate with the winning run on an Alec Bohm double-play grounder in the sixth. Harper has just three hits in his last eight games but two of them have left the yard, and on the season he's slashing .262/.363/.519 with 14 homers, four steals, 36 runs and 36 RBI in 60 contests.

Phillies' Jhoan Duran: Notches 13th save

The right-hander hit triple digits on the radar gun four times in 14 pitches (nine strikes) during a dominant performance.
