Steer went 1-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run in Tuesday's 6-5 win over Atlanta.

Steer's two-run shot in the seventh inning proved to be the game-winning knock, as Cincinnati completed the comeback from a 5-1 deficit. The home run was Steer's 20th, marking the second consecutive year he's crossed that threshold and giving him his first 20-20 season.

Carroll went 1-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base and a hit-by-pitch in Tuesday's 8-2 loss to Colorado.

Carroll swiped his 29th bag of the season in the third inning but was stranded at second base. Following a hot stretch during the month of August, Carroll's bat has faded; he's batting .220 (9-for-41) with one RBI over the last 11 games.

Guillorme started at second base and went 0-for-2 with two walks and a stolen base in Tuesday's 8-2 loss to the Rockies.

The steal was Guillorme's third in 18 games since joining the Diamondbacks. Ketel Marte was given the day off, clearing the way for Guillorme to get a start. Now that Marte is back from an ankle injury and regularly playing the field, Guillorme has receded into a backup role. Tuesday's start was his first in seven contests.

Gurriel (calf) had four live at-bats at Arizona's camp facility at Salt River Fields on Tuesday, MLB.com reports.

Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Gurriel came out of the activity feeling good. The skipper added that Gurriel also did some "aggressive baserunning" and "outfield work." The team is hopeful Gurriel can return during its current road trip. Arizona finishes a series against Colorado on Wednesday before moving on to Milwaukee.

Yastrzemski went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk, one additional RBI and two total runs scored in Tuesday's 10-0 win over the Orioles.

Yastrzemski took the second pitch of the game deep to right field for his fifth homer over 13 contests in September. He's posted just four other hits this month, but he's been decently productive with nine RBI and 10 runs scored. Overall, Yastrzemski has a .237/.312/.442 slash line with 16 homers, 52 RBI, 55 runs scored and three stolen bases through 129 contests.

Walker went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 8-2 loss to the Rockies.

Walker's eighth-inning blast cut the deficit to four runs before the Rockies fired back with two more runs of their own. The first baseman has gone 11-for-38 (.289) with three homers and eight RBI over 12 contests since he returned from an oblique injury. It's shaping up to be a strong end of the year for the 33-year-old, who is slashing .257/.344/.487 with 26 homers, 79 RBI, 66 runs scored, 23 doubles and two stolen bases over 119 contests.

Montgomery (8-7) allowed three runs on six hits and two walks while striking out four over 4.2 innings to take the loss versus the Rockies on Tuesday.

Montgomery made his last four appearances out of the bullpen, posting middling results. He had two scoreless outings, but he allowed seven runs across his other two games in that span. The veteran southpaw has struggled to a 6.23 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 77:42 K:BB through 112.2 innings over 24 appearances (20 starts) this year. Montgomery should get at least one more start due to the absence of Ryne Nelson (shoulder), with that outing projected to be in Milwaukee.

Beck went 2-for-4 with a double, one RBI, a stolen base and one run scored in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

This was Beck's first multi-hit effort since Aug. 16. He's up to seven steals on the year, recording five of them over his last 19 contests. The outfielder has added a poor .204/.259/.299 slash line with three home runs, 13 RBI, 14 runs scored and six doubles over 170 plate appearances across two stints in the majors this year.

Goodman went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

Goodman's power surge continues -- he's homered in back-to-back games and has swatted five long balls over his last seven contests. He's also gone 7-for-24 (.292) in that span, a significant improvement over his .192 batting average for the year. Goodman is up to 13 homers, 34 RBI, 23 runs scored and a .663 OPS through 206 plate appearances.

Tovar went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, an additional RBI and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

Tovar supplied a solo shot in the third inning and an RBI single in the sixth. The shortstop has homered three times over his last five games, going 6-for-22 (.273) in that span. This is his first 25-homer campaign, and he's added a .266/.293/.469 slash line with 70 RBI, 80 runs scored and six stolen bases over 147 contests.
