    The infielder reached on a fielder's choice in the first inning and stole second, but he was left stranded. In the fourth, he added a double and scored on Josh Fuentes' two-run double. McMahon has hit safely in five of the last six games, going 7-for-23 (.304) with a home run and four doubles in that span.

  • Matt Chapman 3B | SF

    Athletics' Matt Chapman: Drives in three runs

    Chapman went 3-for-4 with three RBI in Sunday's 7-6 win over Minnesota.

    Chapman opened the game's scoring with his RBI single in the second inning. He later plated runs in the fifth and seventh innings on a sacrifice fly and another base knock.

  • J.D. Davis 1B | LAA

    Mets' J.D. Davis: Beginning rehab assignment

    Davis (hand) will join Triple-A Syracuse for a rehab assignment this week, Deesha Thosar of the New York Daily News reports.

    The Mets originally expected the 28-year-old to be activated from the injured list this weekend, but he'll instead head to Triple-A for some rehab games. Davis has been sidelined for a little over two weeks, so he should need only a couple games in the minors to get back up to speed.

  • Ke'Bryan Hayes 3B | CIN

    Pirates' Ke'Bryan Hayes: Nearing rehab assignment

    GM Ben Cherington said Sunday that Hayes (wrist/hand) is expected to begin a rehab assignment within "the next several days," Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    The 23-year-old shifted to the 60-day injured list last weekend and isn't eligible to be activated until early June, so he's not on the cusp of his return. Hayes could build up slowly during the rehab stint with over two weeks until he can rejoin the active roster.

  • Twins' Willians Astudillo: Leaves with bruised hand

    Astudillo was removed from Sunday's game against the A's with a bruised hand, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

    The 29-year-old went 0-for-1 and exited Sunday's contest after suffering the injury on a hit-by-pitch. Astudillo was working behind the plate and was replaced by Ben Rortvedt.

For the year, Ramirez is slashing .261/.344/.575 with 11 home runs, 22 RBI, 25 runs scored and four stolen bases in 154 plate appearances. The third baseman has produced a .314 ISO, right in line with the .315 mark he had last year as a strong power hitter in the heart of Cleveland's order.

  • Max Muncy 3B | LAD

    Dodgers' Max Muncy: Collects three more hits

The first baseman has been red hot of late, registering three straight multi-hit contests. Over his past four games, Muncy has gone a collective 8-for-14 with three homers, seven RBI and six runs.
