It was Valenzela's eighth multi-hit game and the third time this season that he logged at least three hits. It was a welcome return to form at the plate for the 25-year-old catcher, who entered Friday's contest having gone 2-for-18 (.111) with a solo home run since the All-Star break.

Wong is not in the Red Sox's starting lineup against the Dodgers on Friday, Ari Alexander of 7 News Boston reports.

Orioles president of baseball operations Mike Elias said Friday that Rutschman (wrist) will resume hitting Saturday and could begin a rehab assignment next week, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Rutschman went down with left wrist inflammation just after the All-Star break and has made enough progress in order to be cleared to ramp up activities. The switch-hitting catcher has been mentioned as a possible trade candidate, and while he can be dealt while on the injured list, Rutschman's wrist issue could hinder the chances of a trade.

Orioles president of baseball operations Mike Elias said Friday that Basallo (shoulder) will resume hitting within the next couple days, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Basallo has been shut down for more than a week and received an injection to help his right shoulder inflammation subside. There is currently no timeline for his return, and Basallo could require a rehab assignment if his absence drags on much longer.

Ruiz will receive his second day off in the past three days as the Nationals take on Atlanta for the second game of a four-game set. Harry Ford will be behind the dish and batting seventh for Washington.
