  • Walbert Urena SP | LAA

    Angels' Walbert Urena: Fans seven in no-decision Saturday

    Urena didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 6-5, extra-inning loss to the Nationals, giving up four runs on nine hits and two walks over six innings. He struck out seven.

    All the damage off Urena came in the first two innings, but the right-hander settled in after that and was taken off the hook for a loss when the Angels staged a late rally from a 4-0 deficit. It's the first time since Aug. 8 that Urena's been tagged for more than three runs, and over his first 137.1 big-league innings he's produced a 2.88 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 131:67 K:BB. He'll look for his 10th win of the season in his next outing, which is set to come at home next week against the Twins.

  • Brady Singer SP | CIN

    Reds' Brady Singer: Lit up again in 14th loss

    Singer (6-14) took the loss Saturday against the Brewers, allowing eight runs on eight hits and five walks in four innings. He struck out five.

    Milwaukee pounced on Singer right away, tagging him for four runs in the first inning. The right-hander had given up more than four runs just three times in 2026 before his most recent two starts in September, during which he's coughed up a staggering 14 runs. He'll take a 5.38 ERA, 1.51 WHIP and 125:56 K:BB over 150.2 innings into a difficult home assignment versus the Dodgers.

  • Tim Mayza RP | PHI

    Phillies' Tim Mayza: Thrives as opener

    Mayza didn't factor into the decision Saturday against Atlanta, allowing two hits and no walks in three scoreless innings. He struck out four.

    Mayza filled in admirably for the injured Jesus Luzardo (shoulder) on Saturday, blanking Atlanta for three frames in a spot start as an opener. The southpaw has given up just one earned run in his last 14 outings. Through 64.1 innings on the year, he has a 3.08 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 63:15 K:BB, typically serving as a middle reliever for the Phillies.

  • Pete Fairbanks RP | MIA

    Marlins' Pete Fairbanks: Earns 19th save

    Fairbanks earned the save in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Dodgers, allowing one run on one hit and one walk without recording a strikeout in the ninth inning.

    Fairbanks was called on for his first save opportunity since returning from the injured list Wednesday and closed the door despite allowing a run. The 32-year-old's fastball velocity was down nearly three mph from his season average, so he is possibly still experiencing some rust from his hand injury. He's now 19-for-23 in save chances this year but owns an ugly 6.10 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 57:20 K:BB across 41.1 innings this season.

  • Tyler Mahle SP | ATL

    Braves' Tyler Mahle: Smooth sailing in sixth win

    Mahle (6-10) tallied the win Saturday against the Phillies, allowing one run on six hits and no walks in seven innings. He struck out six.

    Mahle cruised to the victory Saturday, with Atlanta surging for eight runs in the fourth inning. The right-hander has been dealing on the mound in his new digs, surrendering two runs or fewer while pitching at least six innings in six of his last seven outings since joining Atlanta. He'll look to keep the good times going his next time out in Houston, where he'll carry a season 3.91 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 127:43 K:BB over 138 innings.

  • Mookie Betts SS | LAD

    Dodgers' Mookie Betts: Reaches 20 homers in loss

    Betts went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and a stolen base in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Marlins.

    Betts opened the scoring with a solo shot in the first inning, reaching the 20-homer milestone for the ninth time in his career. It continued a strong September for the veteran, who's hitting .333 with seven extra-base hits, 14 RBI and 12 runs scored through 10 games this month. On the season, he's slashing .248/.313/.432 with 20 homers, 61 RBI, 63 runs scored and two steals across 470 plate appearances.

  • Tyler Phillips SP | MIA

    Marlins' Tyler Phillips: Allows two homers in short outing

    Phillips did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Dodgers, allowing two runs on two hits and three walks with three strikeouts over 3.2 innings.

    Phillips allowed back-to-back homers in the first inning but did keep the Dodgers in check from there despite throwing just 37 of 68 pitches for strikes. It marked the first time the 28-year-old failed to complete at least four frames in a game he started since July 12, and he's now yielded three earned runs or fewer in five straight outings. He owns a 3.55 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 96:51 K:BB across 119 innings this season and lines up for a road matchup with the Padres next weekend.

  • Bryan Baker RP | TB

    Rays' Bryan Baker: Picks up MLB-high 40th save

    Baker threw 1.1 scoreless innings for the save Saturday against the Astros, allowing one hit and no walks. He struck out one.

    Baker recorded more than three outs Saturday for just the second time this season. The All-Star closer continues to be dominant, giving up only three earned runs in 27 appearances since the start of July. He has a 1.54 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 62:21 K:BB with a major-league-leading 40 saves (43 opportunities) over 58.1 innings in 2026.

  • Ian Seymour RP | TB

    Rays' Ian Seymour: Fans 10 in six strong innings

    Seymour didn't factor into the decision Saturday against the Astros, allowing two runs on four hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out 10.

    Seymour flooded the zone Saturday, pouring in 58 of his 79 pitches for strikes in a strong start. The southpaw tends to get hurt by the long ball, as he's served up at least one home run in seven of his last eight outings, but he's fanned at least seven on six occasions during that span. He'll bring a 4.27 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 150:34 K:BB over 122.1 innings into his next scheduled appearance against the division-rival Red Sox.

  • Tyler Glasnow SP | LAD

    Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Chased early in first loss

    Glasnow (4-1) took the loss against the Marlins on Saturday, allowing four runs on five hits and four walks with seven strikeouts over four innings.

    Glasnow suffered a three-run second inning and labored overall, throwing just 52 of 91 pitches for strikes and departing after walking two straight batters to open the fifth. While the 33-year-old has registered an impressive 28 punchouts through 22 innings (four starts) since returning from the injured list Aug. 25, he owns a 4.91 ERA during that stretch. He'll take a 3.50 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 77:21 K:BB across 61.2 frames into a home matchup with the Giants next weekend.
