Turang went 3-for-3 with a double, a three-run home run, an additional RBI, two additional runs scored and a walk in Friday's 20-0 win over the Reds.

Turang smacked a three-run shot off Andrew Abbott in the second inning and later added an RBI double in the fifth, ultimately ending just a triple shy of the cycle. The four RBI allowed Turang to reach the 90-RBI threshold, and he also matched his previous career-high mark in homers with 18 thanks to his second-inning blast. The star second baseman has been hit-or-miss so far in September. Through 10 games, he has five multi-hit performances and five hitless games, but overall he is hitting .394 with a 1.130 OPS since the beginning of the month.

Bazzana went 2-for-2 with two walks and two runs scored in Friday's 5-2 win over the Twins.

Bazzana got on base to start an inning in all four of his plate appearances, and eventually the Guardians' bats got him home in the seventh and ninth innings. The rookie has been on a roll the last week, going 9-for-18 with four walks, two doubles, two home runs and eight RBI over the last six contests.

Marte went 2-for-5 with two doubles, three RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 9-1 win over Texas.

The Diamondbacks scored all of their runs in the fourth and fifth innings, and Marte doubled home runs in both frames. The second baseman has hit safely in all nine games since coming off the injured list, going 10-for-35 with three doubles, one home run, six RBI and six runs scored during his streak.

Walton went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run in Friday's 6-5 extra-inning win over the Mariners.

Walton has just seven homers on the year, but three have come over nine games in September. The utility man delivered with a walk-off blast in the 10th inning Friday, taking Eduard Bazardo deep. Walton has batted .277 with an .850 OPS, 25 RBI, 34 runs scored, 13 doubles, one triple and two stolen bases over 226 plate appearances between the Athletics and the Angels this season.

Williamson (hamstring) has resumed baseball activities, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Out since early August with a right hamstring strain, Williamson will work out with the Rays through the weekend and could then begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Durham next week. If Williamson is able to rejoin the Rays' active roster later this month, he could be used in a short-side platoon role at second base with Richie Palacios.

The Red Sox recalled Seigler from Triple-A Worcester on Friday.

Seigler will rejoin the big-league club after spending just under two weeks in Worcester. In the majors this season, the 27-year-old has slashed .250/.331/.405 with three home runs and 13 RBI over 171 plate appearances. Boston sent Eli White (foot) to the 10-day IL to make room for Seigler on the roster.

Lee is absent from the lineup for Friday's contest against the Rockies.

It looks to be a routine day off for the rookie infielder. Javier Baez will cover second base for the Tigers while Lee rests.

Lowe is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Cubs.

The left-handed hitter will begin the festivities on the bench as the Cubs send southpaw Shota Imanaga to the bump. Nick Gonzales will handle second base in place of Lowe and bat sixth for the Pirates.

Cauley entered Thursday's game as a pinch runner and stole a base in a 4-3 loss to the Mariners.

Cauley, who has a history of stealing bases in the minors, stole his first bag as a major leaguer. He's served in a niche role since returning as part of the Rangers' roster expansion. This was his fifth appearance since the recall, with four of them coming as a pinch runner and one on defense during a blowout loss. He's yet to have a plate appearance this month.

Campbell was placed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Worcester on Thursday with a left foot contusion, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

While the injury seems relatively minor, there's a chance it will end Campbell's season given how little of the schedule is left. Campbell put up a .631 OPS with just two home runs through the end of June at Worcester this season, but he's slashed .320/.440/.524 with six long balls since July 1.
