Pederson went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a loss to the Yankees on Sunday.

Pederson crushed Domingo German's first pitch of the game 420 feet to right field, producing the only Dodgers run in the affair. The 27-year-old has tallied 82 hits this season, with 39 going for extra bases, including 26 long balls. He continues to play almost exclusively against right-handed pitchers while sitting against southpaws, against whom he has hit only .175 (7-for-40) with no home runs this season.

Carpenter went 3-for-4 with a homer, three runs scored, two RBI and a walk in Sunday's 11-4 win over Colorado.

It was Carpenter's second multi-hit game of the month and he's still hitting just 12-for-51 (.235) with four extra-base hits in August. His current .703 OPS is the lowest of his career, and he could miss the 20-homer mark for the first time since 2014.

Dickerson is not in the lineup for Sunday's game at Oakland, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Dickerson went 3-for-5 with a double and two runs scored Saturday, but he'll take a seat Sunday with lefty Brett Anderson on the mound for the A's. Mike Yastrzemski will slide over to left field while Austin Slater starts in right.

Miller is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

Miller had started the previous two games at third base but will cede the position to the recently recalled Maikel Franco in the series finale. Bryce Harper is expected to return from the paternity list ahead of Monday's game against the Pirates and should reclaim a spot in the outfield, which will likely result in Scott Kingery taking back over at the hot corner on a full-time basis.

Dickerson went 3-for-5 with a pair of runs scored in Saturday's 10-5 win over the Athletics.

Dickerson got aboard with a double in the sixth inning and scored on an Evan Longoria single. He then singled in the eighth inning and scored the tying run on a wild pitch by A.J. Puk. Dickerson has been productive with a .328/.385/.603 line with six homers, 26 RBI and 28 runs scored in 50 games this year between the Giants and Padres.

Turner went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in a 2-1 win over the Yankees on Saturday.

Turner took CC Sabathia deep in the third inning for his 23rd home run of the season. The third baseman is hitting .338 in with six home runs this month. For the season, he's slashing .291/.374/.505 across 426 at-bats.

Harper is not in Saturday's lineup against the Marlins.

Harper was placed on the paternity list Friday and can return either Sunday or Monday. In his absence, Adam Haseley is starting in right field with Brad Miller getting the call at third base.

Carpenter is not in Saturday's lineup against the Rockies.

Carpenter is not in the lineup for the third consecutive game, with Tommy Edman taking his place at third base. Carpenter is in the midst of a prolonged slump, going just 4-for-29 with one home run and 12 strikeouts in his last 12 appearances.

Ramirez went 3-for-5 with a double, two RBI and three runs scored Friday night against the Phillies.

Ramirez knocked home a pair of runs in the bottom of the third inning on a single to left field, playing a key part in Miami's comeback win. After going 0-for-5 with two strikeouts over his last two games, he responded with a multi-hit performance. The 24-year-old has put together a .274/.311/.401 slash line over 86 matchups in 2019.

Ozuna went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run, an RBI double, another run scored and a walk in Friday's 8-3 win over the Rockies.

Ozuna got the Cardinals on the board with a homer off Peter Lambert in the first inning. He also hit an RBI double to deep left center in the sixth, then scored again on a single by Paul DeJong. The 28-year-old outfielder has been enjoying a successful campaign when healthy, slashing .265/.343/.520 with 24 home runs, 19 doubles and a team-leading 72 RBI.
