Vaughn went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer and a walk in Sunday's 12-9 win over the Rays.

The Rays led 9-5 heading into the bottom of the ninth, but the White Sox managed to put together a seven-run inning, capped off by Vaughn's three-run blast to put an end to the team's nine-game losing streak. It was his second homer over the last three days, and he's now tallied at least a hit in six of his last seven games. Vaughn now sits at a slash line of .255/.358/.434 with three homers, 20 RBI, 12 runs and a 13:24 BB:K over 123 plate appearances.

Raley went 2-for-4 with two homers and three RBI in Sunday's 12-9 loss to the White Sox.

Raley went back-to-back with Taylor Walls in the fourth inning for his first home run of the day, which was a solo shot. He then went back-to-back again, this time with Christian Bethancourt in the eighth for a two-run blast. Raley now has five hits, three homers and six RBI over his last three games and continues to be a lineup fixture against righties only. He upped his slash line to .226/.300/.613 and raised his OPS to .913 after the two-homer day.

Lowe went 1-for-2 with a two-run homer, two walks and three runs scored in Sunday's 15-2 win over the Yankees.

Lowe went back-to-back with Adolis Garcia in the fifth inning for his fourth homer of the year and just his second since April 12. The 27-year-old also drew multiple walks for the first time this year and came around to score both times. Lowe has tallied a hit in five of his last six games and has upped his slash line to .257/.339/.459 with 14 extra base hits, 19 RBI, 20 runs and a 13:25 BB:K over 124 plate appearances.

Kirilloff (wrist) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list and optioned to Triple-A St. Paul on Sunday.

Kirilloff has spent the start of the year recovering from a procedure he underwent on his wrist last August, and he completed a 20-day rehab assignment Sunday. He played 11 games between Single-A Fort Myers and Triple-A St. Paul during his rehab stint and slashed .316/.447/.658 with four home runs, 12 RBI, 10 runs and two stolen bases, and he'll be able to continue getting up to speed with the minor-league club before rejoining the Twins at some point.

Pasquantino went 3-for-4 with a double, a walk, two RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 8-4 loss to the Twins.

Pasquantino paced the Royals' offense Sunday with his third three-hit game over the first month of the year. The 25-year-old plated two runs in the ninth and came around to score in the sixth after leading off the frame with a double. He has been the Royals' most impactful hitter thus far, slashing .279/.375/.500 with five homers, 10 RBI, 13 runs and a 15:16 BB:K over 120 plate appearances.

The Twins plan to activate Kirilloff (wrist) from the 10-day injured list and option him to Triple-A St. Paul on Monday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

Kirilloff completed his rehab assignment at St. Paul on Sunday and will remain with the minor-league club now that he's healthy once again. The 25-year-old slashed .346/.469/.731 with three home runs, 11 RBI, eight runs and two steals over seven games during his rehab games in St. Paul and should continue to see regular at-bats in the minors until he's up to speed following his rehab stint.

Noda is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.

Noda went 0-for-5 with four strikeouts Saturday and will take a seat Sunday with lefty Nick Lodolo on the mound for Cincinnati. Jesus Aguilar will start at first base while Carlos Perez bats fifth as the designated hitter.

France is feeling under the weather Sunday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports, and the first baseman isn't in the lineup for the series finale against the Blue Jays.

France stepped out of the lineup Saturday while in the midst of a 1-for-25 slump, though he came off the bench and earned a walk as a pinch hitter. The Mariners have a scheduled day off Monday, and the 28-year-old should be back in action for Tuesday's series opener versus the A's. Sam Haggerty is manning first base and batting eighth Sunday.

Bell went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Saturday's 8-7 extra-inning loss to the Red Sox.

Bell's blast got the Guardians on the board in the second inning. He's logged four extra-base hits over his last six games, but he's had some trouble establishing over-the-fence power this season. The first baseman is slashing .214/.316/.398 with three homers, nine doubles, 13 RBI and seven runs scored through 26 contests.

Diaz (shoulder) is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox, Ryan Bass of Bally Sports Sun reports.

Diaz will be out of the lineup for the second consecutive game after he exited Friday's contest with soreness in his left shoulder. The 31-year-old should be available off the bench and will now have Monday's team off day to aid in his recovery before potentially missing more time. Luke Raley will start at first base in Sunday's series finale.
