Brandon Lowe 2B | TB
Rays' Brandon Lowe: Smacks two-run homer
Lowe went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk Tuesday against the Angels.
Lowe led off the scoring for the Rays in the fourth inning by smacking his 20th home run of the season. He has at least one hit in six of eight games since the All-Star break and now has seven home runs across his last 26 games. Lowe also has at least 20 long balls in three consecutive campaigns.

Brice Turang 2B | MIL
Brewers' Brice Turang: Pilfers bag No. 20
Turang went 1-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base in Tuesday's 7-2 win over Atlanta.
The steal was his 20th of 2025, a mark he's reached in three straight seasons. Turang's activity on the basepaths has taken a big step back from last year, when he went 50-for-56 in stolen base attempts, but his overall production has improved. Through 108 games, he's slashing .276/.341/.383 -- career highs in all three categories -- with eight homers, 50 RBI and 65 runs.

Nolan Gorman 2B | STL
Cardinals' Nolan Gorman: Launches 10th homer
Gorman went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 12-6 loss to the Dodgers.
Gorman's blast in the second inning tied the game at 2-2. He's hit safely in all four of his games since returning from a back injury that landed him on the injured list for a brief stay. He's up to 10 homers on the year while slashing .227/.311/.417 across 70 contests. Despite the middling power production, the infielder is trending in the right direction and has a clear path to playing time while Nolan Arenado (shoulder) is out.

Lenyn Sosa 2B | CHW
White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Goes yard Tuesday
Sosa went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 8-3 loss to the Mariners.
Sosa opened the scoring with his first-inning solo shot off Bryan Woo. The long ball extended Sosa's hitting streak to eight games, during which he has gone 13-for-28 (.464) with three homers and seven RBI. This hot stretch at the plate has helped solidify Sosa's place in the lineup, though he still doesn't have just one position. He's starting to settle in at first base while Miguel Vargas (oblique) is out. For the season, Sosa is batting .281 with a .747 OPS, 12 homers, 44 RBI, 36 runs scored and two stolen bases across 96 contests.

Kody Clemens 1B | MIN
Twins' Kody Clemens: Doubles twice in win
Clemens went 3-for-4 with two doubles, an RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's win over Detroit.
Clemens knocked an RBI double and scored a run during the Twins' three-run first inning. He later doubled again in the third and knocked a single in the eighth. Clemens was 7-for-35 (.200) with one extra-base hit over his past 10 games before Tuesday's three-hit performance. He's now slashing .232/.306/.490 with 24 extra-base hits and 33 RBI through 223 plate appearances.

Thairo Estrada 2B | COL
Rockies' Thairo Estrada: Exits early Tuesday
Estrada was pulled from Tuesday's game versus Toronto with an apparent injury, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.
Estrada awkwardly stepped on first base while trying to beat out a double play in the sixth inning, and he appeared to be grabbing at his right hamstring as he went down. With Orlando Arcia (undisclosed) also exiting with an injury Tuesday and Ryan Ritter (finger) already on the injured list, the Rockies may need to turn to their minor-league depth for infield help if Estrada's injury forces him to miss any amount of time.

Gleyber Torres 2B | DET
Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Scratched from lineup
The Tigers scratched Torres from Tuesday's lineup versus the Twins due to left forearm tightness.
Torres was set to start at second base and bat second in the initial lineup prior to being scratched. The adjusted lineup has Zach McKinstry sliding over from shortstop to second while Javier Baez takes over at short.
-
Luis Urias 2B | ATH
Athletics' Luis Urias: Out with back issue
Urias (back) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Nationals.
Urias had to exit Sunday's contest against the Diamondbacks with lower-back spasms and isn't ready to play even after his team was idle Monday. Max Schuemann will handle second base, and Gio Urshela will be at third base for the Athletics.

Javier Sanoja SS | MIA
Marlins' Javier Sanoja: Power surge continues
Sanoja went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Monday's loss to the Astros.
The 22-year-old utility player began the night on the bench, but Sanoja wound up supplying the Marlins with their first run when he pinch hit for Jakob Marsee in the seventh inning and took Bryan King deep. It was Sanoja's fourth homer of the season, and three of them have come in his last two games. Over 10 contests since the All-Star break, he's batting .385 (10-for-26) with six of his hits going for extra bases, a surge that could earn him more playing time all over the diamond -- he's made at least one appearance at every position except catcher and right field in 2025.
