    Mets' J.D. Davis: Leads Mets' offense with three RBI

    Davis went 3-for-4 with a home run, two doubles, three RBI and two runs scored Wednesday as he helped the Mets to a come-from-behind 5-4 victory over the Phillies.

    Davis struck out in his first at-bat of the evening but followed that up with a double in the fourth, a two-run homer to right in the sixth and an RBI-double off the wall in right-center in the eighth. It was the 27-year-old's first three-hit affair of the season as he led the charge for the Mets' offense during their comeback win Wednesday evening. Davis is hitting .280/.384/.441 with six home runs, 19 RBI and 25 runs scored across 191 plate appearances.

  • Jean Segura 3B | CLE

    Phillies' Jean Segura: Records four-hit night

    Segura went 4-for-4 with a solo home run, an RBI and two runs scored Wednesday as the Phillies fell to the Mets 5-4.

    Segura was perfect at the plate Wednesday as he registered his second four-hit effort of the season. His night was highlighted by a line drive solo home run that barely cleared the fence in left to extend the Phillies' lead to 4-0 in the third. Wednesday's effort ended a three-game hitless streak for Segura, raising his slash line to .268/.347/.427 with six home runs, 21 RBI and 25 runs scored in 44 games this season.

  • Alex Bregman 3B | CHC

    Astros' Alex Bregman: Makes fifth straight start

    Bregman went 1-for-3 with a double and a walk in Wednesday's 1-0 loss to the Rangers.

    Bregman has hit safely in four straight contests, going 5-for-14 with two runs, two doubles and three RBI. He appears to be back to normal after a hamstring injury wiped out nearly three weeks. Bregman was initially brought along slowly when activated from the injured list last week, but Wednesday's start was his fifth straight.

  • Evan Longoria 3B | ARI

    Giants' Evan Longoria: Mashes sixth homer

    Longoria went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 9-3 win over the Mariners.

    Longoria went deep in the third inning off Mariners starter Ljay Newsome. Through 41 games, Longoria has six homers, 25 RBI and 22 runs scored. He's slashing .282/.313/.463 in 160 plate appearances.

  • DJ LeMahieu 2B | NYY

    Yankees' DJ LeMahieu: Another big performance

    LeMahieu went 3-for-4 with two home runs, a walk, a double, three RBI and three runs scored Wednesday against Toronto.

    LeMahieu torched the Blue Jays again, this time taking Tanner Roark deep in the first and fourth innings. He now has nine homers on the season, three of which have come in the first two games of the Yankees' series against Toronto. The performance also extended LeMahieu's hitting streak to nine games, during which he's put together three multi-hit efforts. Overall, he has a strong .373/.421/.627 line with 35 runs scored and 22 RBI in 164 plate appearances.

  • Padres' Manny Machado: Mashes 14th long ball

    Machado went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 7-5 loss to the Dodgers.

    Machado cut the Los Angeles lead to 7-4 with his solo shot off Dustin May in the eighth. The long ball marked the third baseman's 14th of the season and brought his RBI tally to 41. He will bring a strong .314/.377/.593 slash line into the weekend series against the Mariners.

  • Isaac Paredes 3B | HOU

    Tigers' Isaac Paredes: Takes seat Wednesday

    Paredes is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.

    He'll give way to Sergio Alcantara at third base in the series finale after starting in five of the previous seven contests. Since his Aug. 17 callup, Paredes is slashing .179/.236/.269 over his first 72 plate appearances in the big leagues.

  • Gio Urshela 3B | MIN

    Yankees' Gio Urshela: Collects three hits in return

    Urshela went 3-for-4 with two doubles, a walk and three runs in a 20-6 victory over the Blue Jays on Tuesday.

    Urshela returned to the starting nine after a minimum stay on the 10-day IL and demonstrated little rust, notching his second three-hit performance of the season. It was technically his fourth straight multi-hit game, though there was a 12-day pause since his previous contest due to the injury. Urshela is hitting a healthy .290/.376/.542 on the season.

  • Jace Peterson SS | ARI

    Brewers' Jace Peterson: Filling super-utility role

    Peterson went 0-for-2 with an RBI, two runs and two walks in Tuesday's blowout victory over the Cardinals.

    Peterson started at second base for the second time in as many days, and while he did not record a hit, he still made a mark in the box score. Peterson has recorded just five hits in 28 at-bats this season -- good for a lowly .179 batting average -- but thanks to a quality .385 OBP and his ability to play both the infield and outfield, he found himself in the starting lineup 10 times in the Brewers' last 20 games.

  • DJ LeMahieu 2B | NYY

    Yankees' DJ LeMahieu: Huge night in rout

    LeMahieu went 4-for-6 with two doubles, a home run, three runs scored and five RBI in Tuesday's 20-6 rout of the Blue Jays.

    His eighth-inning solo shot came off shortstop Santiago Espinal, who got pressed into duty on the mound to save the Toronto bullpen, but it still counts all the same for LeMahieu. The 32-year-old extended his hitting streak to eight games with the performance, during which he's slashing .364/.447/.758 with three homers, seven RBI and 11 runs.
