  • Alec Bohm 3B | PHI

    Phillies' Alec Bohm: Productive in blowout win

    Bohm went 2-for-4 with a home run, a walk, two RBI and two runs scored in Monday's 13-3 win over the Cubs.

    Bohm helped spark a six-run rally for Philadelphia in the eighth inning when he forced in a run with a bases-loaded walk. He later scored on an Odubel Herrera home run before adding a solo shot of his own in the ninth. Bohm hit .329 in June, but he's still posted a lackluster .240/.291/.336 slash line with five homers, 37 RBI, 35 runs scored and four stolen bases through 309 plate appearances this year.

  • Rhys Hoskins 1B | CLE

    Phillies' Rhys Hoskins: Goes deep in win

    Hoskins went 2-for-5 with a home run, three RBI and two runs scored in Monday's 13-3 win over the Cubs.

    Hoskins knocked an RBI single in the sixth inning and added a two-run homer in the ninth. With three long balls in his last six games, the first baseman may be setting up to finish the first half of the season strong. He's up to 19 homers, 49 RBI, 44 runs scored, two stolen bases and a .231/.310/.474 slash line through 345 plate appearances.

  • Pete Alonso 1B | BAL

    Mets' Pete Alonso: Launches homer number 15

    Alonso went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in a 4-2 loss in the second game of Sunday's doubleheader with the Yankees.

    Alonso provided both New York runs with his fourth-inning home run off reliever Darren O'Day, recording one of just three Mets hits in the process. It was the first baseman's second homer on the day as he also went yard in Game 1. The Game 2 homer was his fourth home run in the last seven games.

  • Matt Beaty 1B | KC

    Dodgers' Matt Beaty: Homers against Nationals

    Beaty went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a strikeout in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Nationals.

    Beaty tied Sunday's game with his fourth home run of the season in the top of the fourth inning. The 28-year-old has started in just six of the last 16 games, and he hadn't homered since June 1. He's now slashing .252/.342/.382 with 28 RBI and 19 runs this year.

  • Jose Abreu 1B | HOU

    White Sox's Jose Abreu: Big day at plate

    Abreu went 3-for-5 with a home run, four RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 6-5 loss to Detroit.

    The first baseman got Chicago on the board with an RBI single in the third inning before scoring on a Leury Garcia sacrifice fly. In the ninth, Abreu made things interesting with a three-run homer, but that left Chicago a run short in the loss. The 34-year-old went 5-for-14 with five RBI and four runs scored in this weekend's three-game series in Detroit. He's slashing .250/.330/.447 with 14 long balls, 61 RBI, 42 runs scored and a stolen base through 327 plate appearances overall.

  • Ty France 1B | SD

    Mariners' Ty France: Productive in defeat

    France went 1-for-3 with a double and a bases-loaded walk in a loss to the Rangers on Saturday.

    The surging France now has a five-game hitting streak that includes a pair of doubles and five RBI. The 26-year-old has actually been on a multi-week hot stretch, as he owns a .319 average and .989 OPS across the 82 plate appearances covering his last 19 games.

  • Donovan Solano 1B | TEX

    Giants' Donovan Solano: Tallies three hits

    Solano went 3-for-4 with an RBI and a hit-by-pitch in Saturday's 6-5 win over Arizona.

    Solano knocked in Brandon Crawford to cap a four-run rally in the third inning. All three of Solano's hits Saturday were singles. He's hit safely in nine of his last 11 games, going 14-for-42 (.333) with a home run, two RBI and four runs scored in that span. The infielder has a .278/.332/.386 slash line through 196 plate appearances, but he lacks much in the way of counting stats with three homers, 18 RBI, 21 runs scored and a stolen base.

  • C.J. Cron 1B | BOS

    Rockies' C.J. Cron: Not starting Sunday

    Cron is out of the lineup Sunday against the Cardinals.

    Cron started the past four games and will take a seat after going 3-for-11 with a homer, a double, three RBI, two runs and three walks during that stretch. Joshua Fuentes will start at first base in the series finale.

  • Jose Abreu 1B | HOU

    White Sox's Jose Abreu: Delivers Anderson twice

    Abreu went 2-for-4 with two RBI and scored two runs in Saturday's 11-5 loss to Detroit.

    Abreu plated Tim Anderson twice after the White Sox's leadoff hitter doubled twice, making this his first multi-RBI effort over the previous 13 games. He's fighting out of a fallow period, having entered Saturday's contest batting .147 with two RBI over the previous 10 games. Despite the slump, Abreu remains the team's RBI leader with 57 in 76 games.

  • Kole Calhoun 1B | CLE

    Diamondbacks' Kole Calhoun: Will test hamstring Monday

    Calhoun will run the bases Monday to test his injured hamstring, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.

    Calhoun was pulled from his rehab assignment after aggravating the injury while attempting to avoid getting hit by a pitch. An MRI on the hamstring determined no damage to his surgically repaired hamstring. "I don't see this as a huge setback, honestly," he said. "It's just being cautious and making sure that when I do get back out there, it's get back out there and play." Calhoun had been aiming for a return during this week's homestand but no longer knows what a realistic return date might be.
