Drury went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Rockies.

Drury's one-out single in the bottom of the ninth helped ignite a Diamondbacks attack that had been dormant for most of the afternoon, as Chris Iannetta followed up with a double before Ketel Marte drove Drury home for the game-winning run. After he doubled earlier in the contest, Drury cashed in on his first multi-hit effort since June 21, ending a 3-for-28 drought at the plate.

Padres manager Andy Green said Sunday that he's hopeful Solarte (oblique) will be able to return from the disabled list for the team's first game out of the All-Star break, Bill Center of MLB.com reports.

Solarte has been sidelined since June 20 with the left oblique strain, and though he has yet to return to full baseball activities, he's said to be making progress in his recovery. It's expected that Solarte will increase the intensity of his workouts this week before potentially heading out on a rehab assignment at a minor-league affiliate. Once he returns from the DL, Solarte would likely take back regular duties at the keystone from Carlos Asuaje.

Rodgers was removed from the first game of a doubleheader Saturday with Double-A Hartford after he was hit in the head by a pitch during a fifth-inning at-bat, Michael Avallone of MiLB.com reports.

Rodgers was on the ground for an extended period after being hit but was able to walk off the field under his own power about two minutes later. The prized prospect was held out of the lineup in the nightcap, but it's unknown if he sustained any concussion-like symptoms as a result of the impact that would potentially shelve him for multiple games. Rodgers is batting .226 with no extra-base hits in nine games since being promoted from High-A Lancaster in June.

Forsythe is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.

Forsythe has collected eight hits in his previous two starts, but he'll head to the bench in favor of Chase Utley. The 30-year-old has incredibly raised his average 39 points over his previous two monster games, putting him at a .247/.363/.329 slash line on the year.

Arroyo, who exited Saturday's game with Triple-A Sacramento after being hit by a pitch, has been diagnosed with a broken left hand, Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Manager Bruce Bochy reported Sunday that Arroyo will likely be sidelined until at least September with the fractured hand. The 22-year-old has had plenty of success at Triple-A this season, posting an incredible .400/.465/.611 slash line over 101 plate appearances, but struggled in his 34-game stint with the Giants earlier this year, as he hit just .192 over 135 plate appearances.

Arroyo exited Saturday's contest with Triple-A Sacramento after he was hit in the hand by a pitch.

Arroyo was activated from the 7-day disabled list earlier in the day after missing more than two weeks with a wrist injury, but he was forced to make an early exit in the fifth inning. The 22-year-old phenom is hitting .404/.459/.618 in Triple-A this season and will likely receive further evaluations over the next couple days to determine the extent of the injury. Consider him day-to-day for now.

Forsythe reached base five times Friday, going 4-for-4 with a walk and three runs scored in a win over the Padres.

After struggling in his first 20 games back from injury, Forsythe is batting .326 with 13 runs and a .412 on-base percentage over his previous 11 contests. The 30-year-old has just two home runs this season, but that number should increase if he continues to take good at-bats.

Arroyo (wrist) was activated from the 7-day disabled list Saturday, Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

It appears Arroyo is past the wrist injury that has kept him out since June 15. The 22-year-old will head back to Sacramento, where he is slashing .404/.459/.618 with four homers in 23 games. With the Giants still searching for answers, Arroyo could eventually return to the big club if he continues to dominate at Triple-A.

Frazier is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Giants.

He'll head to the bench with the Pirates facing left-hander Matt Moore for the second game of Pittsburgh's series against San Francisco. Josh Harrison will take over leadoff duties and Jose Osuna will get the start out in left field. Look for Frazier to draw back in Sunday against Jeff Samardzija.

Marte was promoted to the big leagues Wednesday, prior to Arizona's game against the Cardinals.

In an expected move, Marte earns the call-up with Nick Ahmed heading to the disabled list with a fracture in his hand. Marte should get some time in the infield during his stay with the Diamondbacks, but will play second fiddle to Brandon Drury and Chris Owings at both middle infield positions.
