  • Padres' Xander Bogaerts: Records steal in win

    Bogaerts went 1-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base and two runs scored in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Marlins.

    Bogaerts is batting .317 (19-for-60) over 17 contests in September, adding six extra-base hits and four steals. The shortstop has a career-high 22 steals on 23 attempts this season, as speed has been a larger part of his game during his four years with the Padres. Things haven't gone as well for the rest of his offensive profile, as he's batting .229 with a .667 OPS, 12 home runs, 56 RBI, 65 runs scored, 18 doubles and a triple over 148 games this season.

  • Samad Taylor LF | SD

    Padres' Samad Taylor: Racks up three hits in win

    Taylor went 3-for-3 with a double and one RBI in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Marlins.

    Taylor has four multi-hit efforts over his last five contests, a span in which he's also supplied seven RBI. The speedy outfielder has logged an extra-base hit in three of his last four contests. He continues to put bat to ball well, hitting .343 on the year with an .862 OPS, two home runs, four doubles, two triples, 18 RBI, 25 runs scored and 10 stolen bases across 159 plate appearances.

  • Padres' Fernando Tatis: Matches last year's homer total

    Tatis went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Marlins.

    Tatis has homered five times over his last nine games. He's now at 25 homers this year, matching his total from the 2025 regular season. The outfielder is batting .285 with an .823 OPS, 36 stolen bases, 81 RBI, 94 runs scored, 30 doubles and three triples over 154 contests.

  • Padres' Jake Cronenworth: Powers up Sunday

    Cronenworth went 3-for-4 with two home runs, one double, five RBI and three runs scored in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Marlins.

    Cronenworth hasn't displayed much power overall this year, but he tapped into some Sunday. He has gone 16-for-40 (.400) during his 10-game hitting streak, adding nine RBI in that span. For the season, the veteran infielder is batting .229 with a .637 OPS, seven homers, 36 RBI, 45 runs scored, 12 doubles, one triple and nine stolen bases over 103 contests. He is still likely to fall short of the 10-homer mark for the first time since his rookie year in the shortened 2020 campaign.

  • Padres' Walker Buehler: Gets back in win column

    Buehler (9-6) allowed three runs on three hits and two walks while striking out six over 6.2 innings to earn the win over the Marlins on Sunday.

    Buehler came into this start on a stretch of four straight no-decisions, a span in which he gave up eight runs over 17 innings. He was able to dig a little deeper for a quality start and a victory, throwing 63 of 89 pitches for strikes in this outing. For the season, Buehler has a 4.56 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 128:56 K:BB through 150 innings over 31 starts. He's projected for a home start against the Diamondbacks to wrap up his regular season.

  • Jung Hoo Lee RF | SF

    Giants' Jung Hoo Lee: Exits early Sunday

    Lee (groin) exited Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Dodgers in the seventh inning, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Lee fouled a ball off his groin area earlier in the contest, and he was ultimately replaced by Drew Gilbert in the outfield prior to the beginning of the bottom of the seventh frame. Lee will likely undergo further evaluation, and he can be considered day-to-day for the time being.

  • Jack Perkins RP | ATH

    Athletics' Jack Perkins: Strong again in tough-luck loss

    Perkins (3-12) took the loss against the Guardians on Sunday, allowing one run on five hits and no walks with four strikeouts over six innings.

    Perkins allowed just one run in the fourth inning but was outdueled by Gavin Williams. The 26-year-old Perkins threw 54 of 80 pitches for strikes with nine whiffs, and he's now delivered quality starts in back-to-back outings for the first time this season. He owns a 5.90 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 131:48 K:BB across 116 innings as both a reliever and starter this season and will make his final start of the campaign at home against the Astros next weekend.

  • Gavin Williams SP | CLE

    Guardians' Gavin Williams: Dominant effort in win

    Williams (14-8) earned the win against the Athletics on Sunday, allowing three hits and one walk while striking out nine over seven scoreless innings.

    Williams breezed through seven scoreless frames, throwing 63 of 89 pitches for strikes with a whopping 21 whiffs. It continued a stellar September for the 27-year-old, who's yielded just four earned runs over four outings spanning 25 innings while logging three quality starts and racking up 40 punchouts. He's compiled a 3.63 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 244:57 K:BB across 181 innings this season and lines up for his final start of the regular season on the road against Kansas City next weekend.

  • Blue Jays' Spencer Arrighetti: Nabs ninth win as reliever

    Arrighetti (9-9) notched the win Sunday against Texas, striking out two while allowing two runs on two hits and two walks in 2.1 innings of relief.

    Arrighetti was not nearly as effective as opener Spencer Miles, who fired three shutout innings, but Toronto provided enough run support to get Arrighetti credited with the win. The right-hander has now operated as a long reliever in five of his seven outings for the Blue Jays, but he's yet to cover at least five frames since coming over from Houston. He has a 6.35 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 19:14 K:BB over 22.2 innings for his new team, and it remains to be seen how he'll next be deployed once Trey Yesavage (knee) is reinstated from the injured list.

  • Jacob deGrom SP | TEX

    Rangers' Jacob deGrom: Shaky in 10th loss

    DeGrom (11-10) took the loss Sunday against Toronto, striking out two while allowing three runs on five hits and four walks in 4.1 innings.

    The veteran right-hander didn't have his best stuff on the mound, matching a season low in punchouts and issuing at least four free passes for the third time this year. It was deGrom's shortest outing since Aug. 25 against the White Sox, breaking up a four-start streak with at least five innings and two or fewer runs allowed. His final appearance of the regular season is set to come in Minnesota, with deGrom carrying a career-worst 3.86 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 196:43 K:BB over 158.2 innings as he searches for his fifth career 200-strikeout campaign.
