  • Red Sox's Masataka Yoshida: Extends hit streak

    Yoshida went 3-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 4-3 win over the Tigers.

    The Red Sox did little against Detroit starter Casey Mize for six innings until Yoshida opened the seventh with a single. Two batters later and after 80 pitches, Mize was removed, and the Red Sox took advantage of the bullpen. Yoshida scored in the seventh, and Boston scored runs in the following two innings to complete the comeback. The multi-hit effort extended Yoshida's hit streak to seven games, during which he's gone 13-for-30 (.433) with four extra-base hits and five RBI.

  • Miguel Andujar DH | CIN

    Reds' Miguel Andujar: Key hit in win

    Andujar went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 3-1 win over Milwaukee.

    Andujar plated the go-ahead run and scored the insurance run in the Reds' two-run sixth inning. He's started the last two games as the designated hitter but has been limited to DH and pinch-hit duties for the last two weeks.

  • Gavin Lux DH | CIN

    Reds' Gavin Lux: Contributes to win

    Lux started in left field and went 2-for-4 with two doubles and two runs scored in Friday's 3-1 win over the Brewers.

    Lux was integral to the victory, which vaulted the Reds into a tie for the wild-card spot with the Mets, but Cincinnati owns the tie-breaker. He's been on a roll of late, going 12-for-35 (.343) with an .883 OPS, five extra-base hits and three RBI over the last 10 games. With Austin Hays (back) still sidelined, left field is available for Lux, who may also find opportunities at second base or designated hitter over the final weekend of the regular season.

  • Yankees' Giancarlo Stanton: Goes deep twice in victory

    Stanton went 2-for-4 with two homers and five RBI in Friday's 8-4 win against Baltimore.

    The veteran slugger notched his ninth career performance with five or more RBI, achieving the feat for the second time this season. Stanton also posted his second multi-homer contest of the season, smacking a two-run long ball in first before returning in the third to hit a three-run blast, both coming off Orioles starter Trevor Rogers. The 35-year-old remains a force to be reckoned with when in the lineup, as he's now slashing .267/.342/.584 with 23 homers, 64 RBI and 35 runs scored in 273 plate appearances.

  • Kyle Manzardo DH | CLE

    Guardians' Kyle Manzardo: Goes yard in defeat

    Manzardo went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 7-2 loss to Texas.

    Manazardo blasted his 27th homer of the year and his first since Sept. 10 against the Royals. The 25-year-old slugger has been a quality power hitter in 2025, though his fantasy appeal has been limited by his weak batting average and lack of run-scoring production. Through 465 at-bats, Manzardo is hitting .232 with just 47 runs scored and two stolen bases, albeit with 70 RBI.

  • Seiya Suzuki DH | CHC

    Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Reachers 30-homer mark in style

    Suzuki went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in Friday's 12-1 win over the Cardinals.

    Suzuki notched 30 home runs and 100 RBI for the first time in his major-league career with a seventh-inning grand slam. The 31-year-old has now hit safely in five straight games and gone deep three times over the past two days. For the season, he's slashing .244/.323/.491 with 30 homers, 101 RBI, 72 runs scored and five steals across 644 plate appearances.

  • Jorge Polanco DH | SEA

    Mariners' Jorge Polanco: Not in Friday's lineup

    Polanco is not in the Mariners' starting lineup against the Dodgers on Friday.

    Polanco will begin Friday's contest on the bench while Cole Young starts at second base and bats ninth. Polanco has been hot at the plate since Sept. 1 with a .329/.375/.608 slash line with three home runs, 13 RBI, 13 doubles and 12 runs scored across 89 plate appearances.

  • Yandy Diaz DH | TB

    Rays' Yandy Diaz: Good to go Friday

    Diaz (groin) will DH and bat second Friday against Toronto.

    Diaz was removed from Thursday's game due to tightness in his right groin and was deemed day-to-day by manager Kevin Cash. However, Diaz is in the starting lineup for Friday's contest. He's 17-for-36 (.472) with two home runs and a 10:4 BB:K in his last 11 games.

  • Mike Trout DH | LAA

    Angels' Mike Trout: Pops homer in loss

    Trout went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 9-4 loss to the Royals.

    Trout got the Angels within a run in the eighth inning with his homer, but the Royals responded with a four-run ninth. This was Trout's second long ball in his last four games. The outfielder has struggled a bit in September, even compared to the rest of the season, as he's hitting .211 (15-for-71) with 34 strikeouts over 21 games this month. On the year, he's batting .228 with a .772 OPS, 23 homers, 61 RBI, 69 runs scored and two stolen bases across 127 contests.

  • Seiya Suzuki DH | CHC

    Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Goes deep twice Thursday

    Suzuki went 2-for-4 with two home runs and four RBI in Thursday's 8-5 loss to the Mets.

    Suzuki finally snapped his homerless streak, as he had gone 38 games dating back to Aug. 6 without a long ball before Thursday. Even with the power outage, the Chicago outfielder has already set a new career high with 29 home runs this season. Suzuki has also set a new career high in RBI this year with 97, and he leads the team in that department.
