Rizzo went 1-for-6 with one homer, three RBI and one run scored in Tuesday's victory over the Twins.

Although Rizzo picked up only one hit in the game Tuesday, he made it count, sending Aaron Judge and DJ LeMahieu home on the seventh-inning blast. After hitting only two homers in May, Rizzo already has three in June. Things could be looking up for Rizzo going forward as he looks to improve on his .213/.314/.487 slash line.

Montero went 0-for-4 with a strikeout Tuesday against the Giants.

Montero was promoted from Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday and immediately drew a start at third base while hitting seventh. It's unclear exactly how he'll pick up playing time, as Ryan McMahon is the team's primary third baseman and Brendan Rodgers has shown more at the dish of late. Prior to his promotion, Montero had hit .314/.384/.518 -- albeit in a hitter-friendly environment -- with Albuquerque.

Lowe went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run in the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader split with the Guardians. He went 0-for-4 in the afternoon affair.

Lowe continued a recent power surge that's seen him bash five home runs and slug .603 over the last 17 games. Seven of his last 20 hits have resulted in extra bases. The first baseman, who bottomed out at a .292 slugging percentage on May 16, is up to .400 following this current surge.

Votto went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run, a walk and an additional run scored during Tuesday's 14-8 win over the Diamondbacks.

The veteran first baseman started the scoring with a three-run shot during the opening frame, and he also came around to score on Tyler Stephenson's homer during the eighth inning. Votto extended his hit streak to six games and has gone 7-for-21 with three home runs, two doubles, 10 RBI and eight runs during that span.

Dalbec went 2-for-5 with two RBI and a stolen base in Tuesday's 6-5 extra-inning win over the Angels.

Both of Dalbec's hits were RBI singles. The first baseman also picked up his first stolen base of the year in the sixth. Tuesday marked just his sixth multi-hit effort of the season, ending a 1-for-11 skid at the plate to start June. Overall, he's posted an uninspiring .187/.269/.295 slash line with three homers, 12 RBI, 18 runs scored, four doubles and a triple through 156 plate appearances. Dalbec saw a little extra playing time while Jackie Bradley was on the paternity list, but now that he's back with the team, Franchy Cordero is likely to return to the strong side of a platoon at first base. That will limit Dalbec mainly to starting against left-handed pitchers.

Flores went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Rockies.

Flores gave the Giants a 2-1 lead in the first inning with his homer, and he added a pair of singles for his second three-hit game in his last four contests. The infielder has also homered thrice in his last eight games as he continues to be a steady force in the heart of the lineup. The 30-year-old is up to a .266/.330/.446 slash line with seven long balls, 33 RBI, 30 runs scored and 12 doubles through 206 plate appearances.

Bohm went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's victory over the Brewers.

Bohm took Josh Hader deep for a solo homer to open the top of the ninth inning, tying the game at 2-2. The long ball was his fourth of the year and first in his last 15 games. After a 1-for-28 cold spell in his previous seven games, Bohm has gone 4-for-8 with a homer and two runs in his last two contests. The third baseman owns a .262 average with four homers, 20 RBI, 27 runs and stolen base over 191 at-bats in 53 games this season.

Alonso had X-rays on his right hand come back negative after leaving Tuesday's game against the Padres, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

The 27-year-old was struck in the right hand by a pitch during the first inning Tuesday, but it appears he's avoided a serious injury, though he's also undergoing an MRI, per Anthony DiComo of MLB.com. Alonso could still need some time to recover from the issue, so it's unclear whether he'll be back in the lineup for Wednesday's series finale.

Alonso was removed from Tuesday's game against San Diego after being hit by a pitch on his right hand, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Alonso was struck in the right hand on a check swing during his first plate appearance Tuesday, and he was replaced by a pinch runner. The 27-year-old is likely to undergo X-rays and should be considered day-to-day until his status is updated.

Wade (knee) received the final synthetic lubricant injection in his left knee Tuesday and will begin a rehab assignment Thursday with Triple-A Sacramento, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.

Wade resumed baseball activities last week and is now entering the final stages of his rehab program after completing the series of synthetic lubricant injections. The 28-year-old has been sidelined nearly three weeks with left knee inflammation, and he also missed the first month of the season while dealing with issues in the same knee.
