Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado went 3 for 5 with a double and a run scored in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Braves. The double was his 20th of the season, and the All-Star third baseman is 8 for 28 in seven games so far this month.

Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado went a perfect 3 for 3 at the plate during Wednesday's 3-2 loss against the Angels. He had his 19th double, one run and two intentional walks in the loss.

Arenado had his first multihit game in six July starts. He had a total of two hits in his first five July games.

The All-Star third baseman is batting .303 with a .688 slugging percentage, 1.021 OPS, one triple, seven doubles, 11 home runs, 25 RBI, 21 runs, five walks and 13 strikeouts in his last 28 games.

Blue Jays designated hitter Josh Donaldson went 2 for 4 with two doubles and two RBI in Wednesday's loss to the White Sox.

Donaldson continued his recent offensive surge with the multi-hit performance. Over his last eight games, Donaldson is hitting .353 with 12 hits, three doubles, three home runs and 11 RBI.

Rays third baseman Evan Longoria went 2 for 5 with three RBI in Wednesday's loss to the Royals.

Longoria extended his hitting streak to seven games with the multi-hit performance.

Over his last seven games, Longoria is hitting .323 with 10 hits, a home run and six RBI.

Orioles third baseman Manny Machado went 1 for 4 in the 5-3 loss to the Twins on Wednesday. The one hit was a solo home run in the top of the eighth inning, bringing the Orioles within three runs.

It was Machado's 19th home run of the season and the third in his last five games. 

Blue Jays third baseman Josh Donaldson broke a 1-1 tie with a solo home run, leading Toronto to a 2-1 win over the White Sox.

Donaldson went 1 for 3 with a walk. He hit his 21st home run of the season and second in as many days.

Donaldson has hit in the last three games, going 5 for 11.  

Rays third baseman Evan Longoria chipped in a two-run home run in the 9-5 loss to the Royals in Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader. Longoria's home run, his ninth of the year, was his only hit of the game. It came in the fourth inning to temporarily tie the game at 3-3. 

Longoria is 11 for 40 with two home runs over his last 10 games. 

Orioles third baseman Manny Machado hit his 18th home run of the season and second in the last three games, in Monday's loss to Minnesota. 

Machado went 2 for 4 with a walk. He turned in his first multi-hit game in the last seven.

Reds shortstop Eugenio Suarez hit his third home run of the year in Monday's win over Washington. 

"He got it enough," Nationals manager Matt Williams said, per MLB.com. "When it's humid and warm like this, the ball carries pretty well, and he hit it in the perfect spot. Just got it over, inside the pole."

After hitting one home run in his first 16 games of the year, Suarez now has two in his last five games. He went 3 for 4 with two RBI, getting as many hits as he had in his previous 12 at bats, spanning four games. 

"[Suarez has] been a run producer, not just getting hits but timely hits, driving in runs," Reds manager Bryan Price said. "He's shown a little bit of power. That was a big one there off of [Casey] Janssen to give us a lead. There's nothing like being able to take a lead in the late innings knowing that Mattheus, Parra, Hoover and Chapman in that mix ends up finishing a lot of our wins."

Blue Jays third baseman Josh Donaldson connected on his 20th home run of the season during Monday's 4-2 loss to the White Sox.

Donaldson hit the solo shot off Chris Sale in the sixth inning. He finished the game 2 for 3 at the plate. Prior to his two-hit game Monday, Donaldson was hitting .250 with two home runs and 10 RBI in his last 15 games.
