Henderson went 2-for-5 with a double, an RBI and one run scored in Tuesday's win over the Nationals.

Henderson got the Orioles on the board with an RBI single in the top of the first and then doubled and scored in the fifth. The youngster has reached base safely in 13 of his first 14 games in the big leagues, slashing a robust .304/.360/.457 in the process. With Henderson and fellow rookie Adley Rutschman playing to their pedigree, the future is bright in Baltimore.

Vargas went 2-for-3 with a run scored and a steal in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Orioles.

Vargas recorded his third straight multi-hit game with two base knocks Tuesday. The utility man singled and scored in the third inning, singled again in the fourth and walked and stole second base in the ninth. The stolen base was his third of the season, and the two-hit effort increased his slash line to .293/.338/.450 through 152 plate appearances.

Miranda went 2-for-2 with a home run, two total RBI and two walks in a 6-3 win over the Royals on Tuesday.

Miranda supplied an RBI single in the third inning and a solo homer in the fifth. The corner infielder has been steady at the plate in September, going 14-for-40 (.350) with five extra-base hits, seven RBI and seven walks over his last 11 games. The 24-year-old rookie is up to a .279/.337/.459 slash line with 15 homers, 63 RBI, 38 runs scored, one stolen base and 20 doubles through 103 games this year.

Urshela went 3-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Royals.

Urshela enjoyed a productive game, including a sixth-inning solo shot that provided the Twins' last run of the game. He started September in a 1-for-19 skid over his first five contests, but he's hit safely in his last six, going 11-for-23 (.478) over that span. The third baseman snapped an RBI drought of 12 contests, and his homer was his first in 27 games. Urshela has a .272/.319/.426 slash line with 12 long balls, 54 RBI, 48 runs scored and a stolen base through 122 games this year.

Duffy went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Monday's loss to Cleveland.

Duffy accounted for the Angels' first runs of the game with his two-run shot to left field in the fourth inning. The long ball was his first since he returned from a lengthy stint on the injured list Aug. 29. Duffy has struggled since being activated, slashing .211/.250/.342 with five RBI over 13 games.

Hayes is not in the lineup for the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Reds.

Hayes went 2-for-4 with a homer and two runs in the first game on Tuesday's schedule, but he will not start the second contest with the Pirates loading up on lefties against Reds starter Fernando Cruz. Rodolfo Castro will man the hot corner in Hayes' place.

Peterson isn't in the lineup Tuesday against St. Louis, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

The lefty-throwing Jordan Montgomery will start the game on the mound for the Cardinals, so Peterson will hand third base off to Mike Brosseau, who will lead off the Brewers' order.

Farmer is not in the lineup for Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Pirates.

Farmer went 1-for-4 with an RBI in the opener, but he will be limited to bench duty in the nightcap. Spencer Steer will man the hot corner in Farmer's place.

Groshans' contract was selected from Triple-A Jacksonville and he is starting Tuesday against the Phillies, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Groshans was traded from Toronto to Miami at the trade deadline for big-league relievers. He has a very strong track record of patience and an ability to make frequent contact in the minors, but Groshans has struggled to tap into his raw power in games. The No. 12 overall pick in 2018 hit .301/.398/.416 (123 wRC+) with two home runs and as many walks as strikeouts (19) in 31 games at Triple-A Jacksonville. Since the trade, he played 12 games at third base, 10 games at shortstop and nine games at second base, so he could play all over the infield over the final three weeks of the season.

Kreidler is not in Tuesday's lineup against the Astros.

Kody Clemens will start at the hot corner and bat seventh. Kreidler is hitting .233 with one home run, one double, nine strikeouts and three walks in nine games since getting the call this month.
