    Rangers' Josh Jung: Logs first hits

    Jung went 2-for-4 with an RBI in Wednesday's 8-3 loss to Baltimore.

    Jung, who returned to the lineup after a getting a day off Tuesday, logged his first hits of the season and drove in his first run. He was hitless over his first 18 at-bats before a run-scoring single in the fourth inning.

    Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Clubs first homer of season

    Ramirez went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Dodgers.

    Ramirez is still looking for his first multi-hit effort of the campaign, but he was able to swat his first homer to give the Guardians some breathing room in the eighth inning. The third baseman has added two doubles, five RBI, two stolen bases and two runs scored over seven games this season. Ramirez is hitting just .143 so far, but he's faced strong pitching staffs in the first two series of Cleveland's season. It shouldn't be long before he locks in as a well-rounded force at the plate and on the basepaths.

    Tigers' Zach McKinstry: Heading to bench Wednesday

    McKinstry is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Smith entered play Tuesday with just two hits in 21 trips to the plate, but he's now reached base five times over the last two games and has drawn five walks in six games this season after walking just 8.7 percent of the time in 2025. Smith is competing for at-bats with Jake Meyers, Joey Loperfido and Brice Matthews in the Houston outfield, but the Astros want Smith to take hold of right field.
