Riley went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run, two walks and two additional runs scored in Monday's 11-0 win over the Marlins.

Riley's two-run blast in the sixth extended the Braves's lead to 8-0 and marked his fifth long ball of the season. It was the third time this year that the power-hitting third baseman walked multiple times in a game and the first time he scored three or more runs. Across 23 games (102 plate appearances), Riley is slashing .271/.373/.482.

Jung went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a solo home run in Monday's 7-6 loss against Cincinnati.

Jung tied the game at 1-1 in the second with a solo shot and extended the Rangers' lead to 5-1 in the third with a two-run blast. Through 21 games (91 plate appearances), Jung is slashing .282/.330/.494 with five home runs, 14 RBI, 15 runs scored and one stolen base. This was Jung's seventh multi-hit game in April so far.

Bregman went 2-for-4 with a double and a solo home run in Monday's 8-3 loss to the Rays.

He took rookie Taj Bradley deep in the first inning to stake the Astros to a 2-0 lead that quickly got squandered. Bregman's third homer of the year extended his hitting streak to seven games, and after a sluggish start to the season, he's slashing .321/.455/.566 over his last 14 contests.

Devers went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Monday's 5-4 loss to Baltimore.

Devers is mashing to open the season and leads the American League with nine homers. His 16 extra-base hits are tied for most in MLB with Matt Chapman.

Moustakas went 3-for-4 with a double and two runs scored in Monday's 6-0 win over the Guardians.

It's the first multi-hit performance of the season for Moustakas, as he got the start at third base and hit sixth for the Rockies. With Elehuris Montero back down in Triple-A, there are at-bats available at the hot corner and at DH, but Moustakas hasn't done a lot to earn them so far by batting .243 with one homer, seven RBI and eight runs in 16 games.

Davis went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Monday's win over the Cardinals.

Davis' home run extended the Giants' lead to 4-0 in the seventh inning, which was enough to seal the win. The former Met now has five home runs and 16 RBI on the season to go along with a .304/.347/.551 slash line.

Maton went 2-for-3 with a three-run homer in Monday's win over the Brewers.

Maton singled in the first inning to snap an 0-for-21 skid before ripping a three-run homer in the third. He's up to four home runs this season alongside a .154/.257/.369 slash line through 74 plate appearances. Maton picked up his first extra-base hit since April 14.

Arenado is not in the Cardinals' lineup Monday in San Francisco, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Arenado is in the middle of a 5-for-32 slide at the plate, so he'll get a day off to regroup. Brendan Donovan will be at third base, with Tommy Edman covering second base and Paul DeJong playing shortstop.

Peterson is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Angels.

The lefty-hitting Peterson will take a seat with southpaw Jose Suarez on the bump for the Angels. Aledmys Diaz will start at third base with Peterson on the bench.

Urshela is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Athletics, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

Urshela will take a seat against the Athletics on Monday after going 2-for-11 in the three-game series against the Royals. Luis Rengifo will hit seventh and play second base with Brandon Drury hitting sixth while handling first base.
