Bogaerts went 2-for-5 with a walk, a run and a stolen base in a 6-5 loss to the Yankees on Friday.

Bogaerts was able to reach base three times Friday while also staying active on the basepaths with his second steal of the season. The 27-year-old is hitting .287/.347/.497 with 10 home runs, 26 RBI and 30 runs scored across 199 plate appearances.

Mondesi went 2-for-4 with a stolen base, two runs scored and a walk in Friday's 9-5 loss to the Brewers.

Mondesi drew a walk and scored on Salvador Perez's first-inning double. In the third, Mondesi reached on a single and advanced to second on Ryan Braun's error before coming around to score on a Perez single. Mondesi added his 18th stolen base of the year by swiping third in the seventh inning after hitting a leadoff double. The speedy shortstop is slashing .216/.253/.330 with four homers, 14 RBI and 23 runs scored in 50 games this year, but he's been more productive since the start of September.

Anderson is out of the lineup Friday against the Reds.

The White Sox clinched their first playoff birth since 2008 with Thursday's win over the Twins, and Anderson will receive his first day off since returning from the groin injury Aug. 11. Nick Madrigal will move up to the leadoff spot while Yolmer Sanchez starts at shortstop.

Fletcher went 3-for-5 with a double and a run in Thursday's win over Arizona.

It hasn't taken long for Fletcher to get back into a rhythm after a stint on the injured list sidelined him for the first part of September. The 26-year-old went 1-for-10 in his first two games back but has notched a pair of three-hit games in his subsequent three starts. That has pushed his average up to .314, seventh best in the American League.

Wendle went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and another RBI during Thursday's victory over Baltimore.

Wendle evened the score, 6-6, with a two-run shot against Travis Lakins in the fourth inning. The 30-year-old now has hit six home runs and scored 21 runs this season while batting .261/.321/.401.

Adames went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in a win over the Orioles in the second game of Thursday's doubleheader.

Adames got the scoring started early in the second part of the twin bill with a first-inning, three-run blast off Bruce Zimmermann. It was the sixth home run of the year for the 25-year-old, who is leading qualifying Rays hitters with a .266 batting average.

Crawford went 1-for-5 with two RBI in the Mariners' 6-4 loss to the Giants on Thursday. He also struck out three times.

Despite the timely knock, Crawford slid further into what is now a 4-for-26 slump. The 25-year-old is slashing .233/.337/.668 through 163 at-bats in 2020.

Correa went 0-for-3 in Wednesday's 1-0 loss to the Rangers.

Correa survived a scare Tuesday when he fouled a ball off his ankle that forced him to leave that night's game. He's appeared in 48 of Houston's 49 games, the first time in four seasons Correa has not missed significant time due to injury.

Anderson went 1-for-4 and was caught stealing in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to the Twins.

Anderson extended his hit streak to five games (13-for-23) and has hit safely in 12 of 14 September games. He's owned the month for two seasons. In 2019, he slashed .374/.400/.566 over 23 games on his way to the AL batting title. This season, he's slashing .450/.477/.600 over 14 games and is tied with the Yankees' DJ LeMahieu for tops in the AL.

Correa (ankle) is starting Wednesday against the Rangers.

Correa left Tuesday's game after fouling a ball off his left ankle, and X-rays revealed a bone bruise. However, he'll be able to return to the field Wednesday, playing shortstop and batting seventh.
