McMahon went 1-for-4 with a walk, a two-run home run and two runs scored Tuesday against the Giants.

McMahon delivered a game-winning home run in the 10th inning, his eighth long ball of the campaign. While his power production early on has stood out, McMahon has more quietly cut his strikeout rate from a career mark of 30.1 percent to 22.8 percent through 92 plate appearances this season.

Arenado went 2-for-4 with two doubles and an RBI in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Phillies.

Arenado logged a double in each of his first two at-bats but caught a break in the first inning. Brad Miller misjudged a sliding catch in left field and the ball went off his glove and rolled all the way to the wall, giving him his lone RBI of the evening and tying the game up at 1-1. The two extra-base hits helped him snap a minor 0-for-10 drought and raised his slash line to .256/.309/.456 with four home runs, 13 RBI and 10 runs scored through his first 23 games as a Cardinal.

LeMahieu went 2-for-4 with a double, two runs scored and a walk in Tuesday's win over the Orioles.

LeMahieu entered this game in a 2-for-20 slump, but he bounced back in a big way and reached base three times -- tying a season-high mark for him in that category. The second baseman is having a slow start to the season, though, and he's hitting just .262 with a .704 OPS thus far -- that average would rank as a career-worst mark for him excluding his rookie year in 2011.

Urshela went 1-for-3 with two RBI in Tuesday's win over the Orioles.

Urshela has driven at least one run in three straight games while also hitting safely in six of his last eight contests. He's hitting .296 with during that stretch.

Ramirez went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a double, a walk and an additional RBI during Tuesday's 7-4 win against the Twins.

The 28-year-old has now homered in back-to-back contests and has a modest six-game hit streak. Ramirez has a .259/.333/.543 slash line with six home runs, three doubles, four stolen bases, 12 RBI and 12 runs through 22 games this season.

Senzel is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Dodgers.

Senzel went 0-for-6 with two walks and an RBI over the past two games. Tyler Naquin will start in center field and bat fifth for Cincinnati.

Suarez is not in Tuesday's lineup against the Dodgers.

He's in a brutal 2-for-40 slump with a 42.9 percent strikeout rate over that stretch. Kyle Farmer is starting at shortstop and batting eighth.

Moustakas (illness) was activated from the injured list prior to Tuesday's game against the Dodgers.

This was the earliest Moustakas was eligible to come off the IL. He will start at third base and bat cleanup against righty Walker Buehler.

Hayes (wrist) should start swinging again this week, Alex Stumpf of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.

He is feeling better after reaggravating his wrist injury last week, and the fact that he could resume swinging this week is very encouraging, as there was no clear report regarding the severity of his setback. It sounds like he could come off the injured list sometime in May.

Longoria is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Rockies, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

The 35-year-old missed the previous three games with left hamstring tightness before rejoining the lineup Monday and going 2-for-2 with a double, three RBI and a run, but he'll return to the bench Tuesday. There's been no indication Longoria aggravated the injury, so the Giants may just be exercising caution after the veteran's return to action. Jason Vosler will start at the hot corner and bat eighth in his place for San Francisco.
