Schanuel went 3-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in a 9-4 win against the Yankees on Thursday.

Schanuel popped a solo homer in the first inning and added an RBI single in the third. He recorded his seventh multi-hit effort over 19 contests since the All-Star break. During that stretch, Schanuel is batting .328 (21-for-64) with four homers, nine RBI, 15 runs and a 13:14 BB:K.

Canha went 4-for-6 with a double and two RBI Thursday against the Nationals.

Canha made his biggest impact since being acquired by the Giants, driving in two and collecting his first four-hit game since 2022 while a member of the Mets. The veteran outfielder started three of the four games in Washington and has now collected seven hits in 15 at-bats since arriving from Detroit at the trade deadline.

Alonso went 3-for-5 with two home runs, three RBI and three runs scored Thursday against the Rockies.

Alonso touched up Colorado starter Austin Gomber for both homers, capping a four-run first inning with a two-run blast, then launching a second dinger off the lefty in the third. It was Alonso's second multi-homer game of the season and his fourth game with at least three RBI. The slugging first baseman is now slashing .246/.331/.476 with 51 extra-base hits including 25 homers, 63 RBI, 67 runs and 49 walks across 493 plate appearances.

Rice is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest against the Angels.

It's southpaw Tyler Anderson toeing the rubber for the Angels, so the left-handed hitting Rice will take a seat. DJ LeMahieu is handling first base for the Yankees.

France isn't in the Reds' lineup for Thursday's game against the Marlins.

France will get a breather Thursday after going 6-for-26 with two homers through his first seven games as a Red. Spencer Steer will get the starting nod at first base instead while Will Benson covers left field.

Turner (hand) started at first base in Wednesday's loss to the Tigers and went 1-for-3 with a walk.

The veteran infielder was able to avoid missing any games after getting plunked on his left hand in Tuesday's game. Turner snapped a brief 0-for-6 skid that had encompassed his previous two contests with Wednesday's production, and he boasts a .362 average and .913 OPS across 15 games since the All-Star break, with six of those games coming with the Mariners.

Freeman went 2-for-4 with three RBI in Wednesday's loss to the Phillies.

The Dodgers went 3-for-13 as a team with runners in scoring position, but Freeman was 2-for-2, stroking a run-scoring single in the first inning and a two-run single in the second. It was the first baseman's third game back since missing eight contests to attend to a family matter, and he hasn't shown any rust since returning, going 4-for-12 with at least one hit in each game. While Freeman's season numbers (.287/.392/.491 slash line, 16 homers, five steals) are mostly down in comparison to last year, he's at 67 RBI through 464 plate appearances, giving him a reasonable shot to reach 100 RBI for the third consecutive campaign.

Yepez went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a stolen base in Wednesday's 7-4 loss to the Giants.

The first baseman took Blake Snell deep in the third inning, briefly giving the Nationals a 3-2 lead that quickly evaporated. Yepez hasn't gone consecutive games without a hit since being added to the Nationals' roster in early July, and in 117 plate appearances over that stretch he's slashing .330/.380/.523 with 12 doubles, three homers, two steals, 16 RBI and 17 runs.

Hoskins is not in the lineup for Thursday's game in Atlanta.

It's a routine day off for Hoskins, who picked up five hits in the first two games of the series. The Brewers will go with Jake Bauers at first base and William Contreras in the designated-hitter spot Thursday as they go for the sweep.

Wade is absent from the lineup for Thursday's contest versus the Nationals, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Southpaw DJ Herz is on the hill for the Nationals, so the lefty-hitting Wade will give way to Mark Canha at first base. Wade has gone just 6-for-34 at the plate over his last 10 games.
