Perez (5-6) struck out eight over seven perfect innings to earn the win over the Athletics on Sunday.

Perez didn't get a chance to go for history, as manager Clayton McCullough pulled the right-hander at 92 pitches (56 strikes). Lake Bachar then made a mess of things in the eighth inning, and Pete Fairbanks struggled in the ninth, but the Marlins had just enough of a cushion to escape with the win. Perez has allowed just two runs over 17 innings across three starts since he returned from a right gracilis muscle strain. He's at a 3.84 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 89:32 K:BB through 79.2 innings over 15 starts this season. Perez is projected to make his next start at home versus the Guardians.

Perdomo went 3-for-5 with a double, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Brewers.

Perdomo has gone 12-for-40 (.300) with three extra-base hits and two steals over his last 10 games. The shortstop was the only Diamondback with multiple hits in this contest. He's batting .243 on the year while adding a .708 OPS, five home runs, 31 RBI, 39 runs scored, 13 doubles, three triples and 13 steals across 86 contests.

Rodriguez (7-3) allowed two runs on five hits and struck out three without walking a batter over six-plus innings to take the loss Sunday versus the Brewers.

Rodriguez blanked the Brewers for six innings, but he served up a two-run home run to Jake Bauers in the seventh. This was Rodriguez's fourth straight quality start, a span in which he's allowed just four runs over 26.2 innings. He's also avoided walking any batters over his last two outings. For the season, the left-hander is at a 2.25 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 74:38 K:BB through 108 innings across 18 starts. Rodriguez is lined up to make his next start in a tough test on the road versus the Dodgers.

Bauers went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

Bauers chased Eduardo Rodriguez from the game with a no-out homer in the seventh inning. This was Bauers' third homer over his last 11 contests, a span in which he's added seven RBI. The 30-year-old is now batting .266 with an .861 OPS, 16 homers, 54 RBI, 51 runs scored, 13 doubles, one triple and five stolen bases over 79 games this season.

Megill walked one in a scoreless and hitless inning to earn the save in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Diamondbacks. He didn't record a strikeout.

Megill successfully protected a one-run lead to pick up his 13th save of the season. He's on a 12-inning scoreless streak which began June 10, and he's posted a 15:3 K:BB with four saves, a win and a hold in that span. For the season, the right-hander has a 3.09 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 44:10 K:BB through 35 innings, and he looks much more in control of the closer job thanks to his strong recent form.

Sproat allowed a run on five hits and three walks while striking out four over four innings in a no-decision versus the Diamondbacks on Sunday.

Sproat was inefficient Sunday, throwing 55 of 92 pitches for strikes in this short start. Since the beginning of June, he has allowed 11 runs over 30 innings across six starts. He's at a 5.13 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 84:37 K:BB across 79 innings through 17 games (15 starts) this season, but he's trending in the right direction. Sproat should remain in the rotation even with Logan Henderson (back) slated to return during the coming week, as Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) was shelved following his injury Saturday. Sproat is projected to make his next start at Pittsburgh.

Schmitt went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 7-6 loss to the Rockies.

Schmitt went 5-for-13 with a homer and a double during the three-game series in Colorado. He had gone 0-for-12 in the Giants' previous series versus the Diamondbacks. The utility man is batting .283 with an .806 OPS, 17 homers, 45 RBI, 39 runs scored, 16 doubles, one triple and seven stolen bases over 81 games this season. Schmitt has taken on a starting role at third base since Matt Chapman (abdomen) got hurt.

Gilbert went 4-for-4 with a two-run home run, a double and a third RBI in Sunday's 7-6 loss to the Rockies.

Gilbert made the most of his chance to start in center field, posting his first multi-hit game since June 20 versus the Marlins. He's mostly been in a bench role lately, going 6-for-19 over his last 13 contests. For the season, the outfielder is batting .243 with a .714 OPS, four homers, 19 RBI, 21 runs scored, nine doubles, two triples and no stolen bases over 198 plate appearances. Gilbert remains in the mix primarily in center field, though he's competing with Jung Hoo Lee and Jonah Cox.

Devers went 2-for-5 with a pair of solo home runs in Sunday's 7-6 loss to the Rockies.

Devers had solo shots in the fourth and fifth innings off Tanner Gordon. This performance extended Devers' hitting streak to nine games, a span in which he has gone 12-for-33 (.364) with six long balls and nine RBI. For the season, he's batting .248 with a .791 OPS, 18 homers, 47 RBI, 43 runs scored, 24 doubles, one triple and no stolen bases over 89 contests.

Mahle allowed four runs (three earned) on eight hits and struck out five without walking a batter over 4.1 innings in a no-decision versus the Rockies on Sunday.

Mahle was mostly able to limit mistakes, but the Rockies still got enough traffic on the bases to make this a tough outing. He has given up just one home run over three starts since he returned from a hamstring strain, which has helped him avoid truly awful starts. He's still struggling overall with a 5.70 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 69:29 K:BB through 71 innings over 14 starts. Mahle is lined up for a rematch at home versus the Rockies in his next start.
