Lowe went 4-for-6 with a solo home run and two additional runs scored in Tuesday's wild 13-12 win over the Giants.

In a contest that saw Pittsburgh score nine runs in the third inning without getting an extra-base hit before walking it off in the ninth on a throwing error, Lowe supplied one of the few actual offensive highlights when he took Cesar Perdomo deep in the seventh inning. The four hits tied Lowe's career high, while the long ball was his 29th of the season, leaving him on the brink of his third career 30-homer campaign. Over his last 10 games, the veteran second baseman has produced a .306/.419/.611 slash line with two doubles, three home runs, four RBI and 10 runs.

The Giants signed Baker to a minor-league contract Tuesday.

Baker has been injured for much of this season and got released from his minor-league deal with the White Sox in late July after posting a .584 OPS in 11 games with Triple-A Charlotte. The 27-year-old is merely organizational depth for the Giants.

Edman went 3-for-5 with one RBI and one run scored in Tuesday's 13-8 loss to the Cardinals.

Edman had gone just 2-for-16 over his previous four games. The utility man was able to deliver a decent performance Tuesday in the high-scoring loss. Edman is batting .268 with a .748 OPS, five home runs, 28 RBI, 31 runs scored, nine doubles, two triples and five stolen bases over 61 contests.

Clemens went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and two runs scored in Tuesday's 15-2 rout of the Tigers.

Clemens put Minnesota on the board with a solo homer in the first inning, giving him 24 long balls on the season and three over his last five games. Across his last 15 contests, the 30-year-old is hitting .321 with 14 RBI. Clemens owns a .768 OPS across 492 plate appearances this season.

Chisholm went 3-for-5 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 7-3 win over the Angels.

Chisholm had just two homers over 27 games in August, batting .244 during the month. He's off to a positive start in September, having already matched his total of three-hit games from last month. The second baseman is batting .232 with a .719 OPS, 19 homers, 55 RBI, 67 runs scored, 16 doubles, three triples and 40 stolen bases across 130 contests this season.

Albies went 1-for-4 with a solo homer during Tuesday's 9-5 loss to Washington.

Albies opened Tuesday's scoring with a solo homer off Jake Irvin in the second inning. It was Albies' first homer since Aug. 11 and 21st of the year, which is fourth-most on Atlanta behind Matt Olson (37), Michael Harris (24) and Drake Baldwin (22). Albies has a .725 OPS with three steals, 44 extra-base hits and 68 RBI over 592 plate appearances this season.

Genao went 1-for-2 with a two-run homer during Tuesday's 6-1 win over Toronto.

Genao pinch hit for Travis Bazzana in the seventh inning, and the former answered the call by taking Joe Mantiply deep to left field for a two-run homer. It was the second major-league homer of Genao's career, with the first taking place Aug. 8 against the White Sox. Since making his major-league debut Aug. 5, he has gone 20-for-76 (.263) with five RBI, five extra-base hits, one steal and 10 runs scored across 22 games.

Cronenworth is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Reds.

Cronenworth started all 28 games in August for the Friars and will receive a day off after posting a .232/.295/.313 slash line during that span. Fernando Tatis is shifting to the keystone Tuesday, which opens up right field for Jase Bowen.

The Rockies recalled Amador from Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday.

Amador is 3-for-10 with one home run during his time with the Rockies this season and has slashed .264/.367/.428 with 11 home runs and 11 stolen bases in 94 contests with Albuquerque. The 23-year-old is capable of handling both middle-infield spots as well as left field.

Semien is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays.

It looks to be a routine day off for the veteran infielder. Brett Baty will grab a start at second base in Semien's stead.
