Henderson went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run, a walk and an additional run scored against the Royals in a 13-10 win Thursday.

Henderson gave Baltimore what looked to be an unsurmountable 8-1 lead in the third inning with a 425-foot, two-run blast to right field. However, Kansas City eventually took the lead in the seventh frame, and Henderson was replaced by a pinch hitter when his turn came up in the eighth. Despite the late-game substitution, this was a positive performance for Henderson, as he had gone just 1-for-13 over his previous five games entering Thursday.

Urias went 2-for-2 with a double, four RBI and two stolen bases in a 13-10 win against the Royals on Thursday.

Urias didn't start the contest, but he was called upon to pinch hit for Gunnar Henderson in the eighth inning. The move paid dividends, as Urias knocked in a pair of go-ahead runs with a single and subsequently stole both second and third base. For good measure, Urias produced again in the ninth, knocking a two-run double to cap a brief but big performance. Though Urias has just one homer this season, he's knocked in 15 runs, fifth-most on the team.

Walls went 1-for-3 with a solo home run Thursday against the Pirates.

Walls opened the scoring with a solo home run off Vince Velasquez in the second inning of Thursday's game. It was his fifth long ball of the season, and second in his last three starts. Walls' defensive versatility has paid off early in the campaign, as he's been in the lineup in 14 of the team's last 21 games while playing a combination of second base, shortstop and third base. In addition to his power production, Walls has five stolen bases, 19 runs scored, 11 RBI and is hitting .290 across his first 80 plate appearances of the season.

Devers went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double and four RBI in Thursday's 11-5 win over the Blue Jays.

Devers provided a two-run double to cap Boston's five-run second inning, and he added a two-run homer as insurance in the eighth. The third baseman is 7-for-25 (.280) with two homers and seven RBI over his last six games. For the season, he's slashing .240/.291/.558 with 11 long balls, 31 RBI, 22 runs scored and eight doubles through 32 contests.

Peterson went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in the Athletics' extra-inning loss to the Mariners on Wednesday.

Peterson swiped second base for the second straight night to push his season total to four. The veteran infielder now has a four-game hitting streak as well, his longest stretch of success at the plate in a season where he's still sporting just a .205/.302/.289 slash line across 96 plate appearances.

The White Sox placed Burger on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a strained left oblique.

Burger suffered the injury while taking a swing during Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Twins. The severity grade of the strain is not clear, but even in a best-case scenario, Burger will likely be sidelined for most of May. Hanser Alberto is handling third base Thursday and could get regular run at the position while Burger and Yoan Moncada (back) are on the shelf.

Suarez went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run and two walks in Wednesday's 7-2 win over Oakland.

Suarez came up clutch for Seattle, mashing a homer to right-center to give the Mariners a 5-2 lead in the top of the 10th inning. Wednesday's three-run shot ended a 1-for-19 stretch, and that slump dropped his slash line to .234/.312/.324. The 31-year-old hit 31 homers in each of the past two seasons, but he's well behind that pace in 2023 with just three long balls through 30 games.

Peraza will receive X-rays after rolling his right ankle during Wednesday's win over Cleveland, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

The results of Peraza's X-rays will help determine whether a stint on the injured list is necessary for the 22-year-old shortstop. Until more information is provided, he should be considered day-to-day.

Peraza left Wednesday's game against the Guardians due to an apparent lower leg injury, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

Peraza came in the game as a pinch runner and awkwardly stumbled while attempting to steal second base. Additional updates should come after the game, but early signs are not reassuring for the 22-year-old infielder.

Burger left Wednesday's game against Minnesota due to left side discomfort, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Burger was grabbing at his left side after coming up empty on a swing in the fourth inning. The 27-year-old slugger is still being evaluated, and more details regarding the severity of his injury should be revealed once the results come back. Burger is slashing .231/.320/.631 through 75 plate appearances this season.
