Lowe went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Brewers.

The second baseman supplied the only offense for the Pirates when he bashed a DL Hall fastball off the right-field foul pole in the eighth inning. It was Lowe's 30th homer of the season, marking the third time in his career he's reached that plateau, and he's been locked in to close out the campaign. Over his last 14 games, Lowe has delivered a .346/.424/.558 slash line with two doubles, three home runs, six RBI and 10 runs.

Freeland went 2-for-4 with a double and a solo home run in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Reds.

The 25-year-old has been the Dodgers' primary second baseman against right-handed pitching in September, and Tuesday's long ball off Pierce Johnson was his first in the majors since May 31. Since rejoining the Dodgers when rosters expanded at the beginning of the month, Freeland has produced a .258/.378/.419 slash line in 37 plate appearances with one homer, two doubles, two steals, two RBI and six runs.

McLain started at second base and went 0-for-3 in Tuesday's 4-0 loss to the Dodgers.

McLain was back in the lineup after missing three games due to a left shoulder injury. The Reds downplayed the severity of the issue and welcomed back their primary second baseman Tuesday. McLain, who will attempt to finish a trying season on a positive note, is batting just .129 (4-for-31) this month and .186 for the season.

Marte went 2-for-6 with two doubles and an RBI in Tuesday's 4-2 extra-innings loss to the Marlins.

Marte drove home the designated runner in the bottom of the 11th inning after Miami scored three times in the top of the frame. It was a frustrating night for the Diamondbacks, who went 1-for-13 with runners in scoring position and missed an opportunity to gain ground in the playoff chase. Marte's hit safely in 12 of 13 games since returning from the injured list, going 14-for-54 with six doubles, one home run, seven RBI and six runs scored.

Arraez went 2-for-3 with two doubles, a walk and an RBI in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Nationals.

The light-hitting infielder tallied a rare showing of multiple extra-base hits, his first such effort since June 30 in Arizona as a member of the Giants. Arraez is targeting his fourth career batting title in 2026, jockeying primarily with Nick Gonzales, Otto Lopez and Gabriel Moreno in the race for the National League crown at this stage of the season. He's hitting an MLB-best .315 in 143 games on the year, and Arraez is batting .291 with two homers, nine doubles, 17 RBI and 14 runs scored over 148 at-bats since being dealt to the Phillies.

Edwards isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Edwards has gone 3-for-8 with an RBI and a run scored in two games since returning from the injured list, and the Marlins will now give him a chance to rest Tuesday while Javier Sanoja starts at the keystone and Graham Pauley mans third base.

Norby isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Padres.

Norby will get a chance to catch his breath Tuesday after notching six base hits in his last three games while adding two RBI and two runs. Adael Amador will cover second base while Mickey Moniak serves as the designated hitter.

McLain (shoulder) will start at second base and bat seventh in Tuesday's game versus the Dodgers.

McLain missed the past three contests with a sore left shoulder, which is the same one he had surgically repaired in 2024. He could have to play through some nagging soreness down the stretch, but McLain feels well enough to give it a go Tuesday.

Brito started at second base and went 1-for-3 in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Dodgers.

Brito filled in at second base for a third consecutive game as Matt McLain (shoulder) remained sidelined. The latest word on McLain, per MLB.com, is that he's improving and will not undergo imaging at this time. Brito has hit safely in all three starts, going 5-for-11 with one double, one home run and three RBI.

Norby went 2-for-5 with two doubles, two RBI and a run scored in Monday's 8-7 loss to the Padres.

Norby notched a pair of doubles, driving in multiple runs for the first time since Aug. 26. In 30 games since joining the Rockies, the 26-year-old is hitting .293/.381/.475 with three homers, 14 RBI, 16 runs and two stolen bases. Factoring in his poor showing with the Marlins earlier in the season, Norby's overall marks sit at .234/.335/.375 with seven homers, 30 RBI, 33 runs and eight stolen bases in 95 total contests.
