Carter went 1-for-4 with a walk, a double, three RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 13-1 win over the Angels.

Carter's ground-rule double produced two runs, and he walked with the bases loaded for a third RBI. Knocking in runs has been a rarity for Carter, who entered the contest with just one RBI over the previous 17 games. The outfielder has just 14 RBI through 37 games this season.

Seager went 2-for-3 with a walk, a solo home run and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 13-1 win over the Angels.

Seager went deep for the second consecutive game with his solo shot in the sixth inning. It was the shortstop's 13th of the season and sixth in the last 11 contests. The two-hit night extended a hit streak to 13 games, during which he's 16-for-48 (.333) with nine extra-base hits, 12 walks, 12 RBI, one steal and 15 runs scored.

Rocchio went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 10-6 extra-inning win over the Astros.

Rocchio connected for his first homer of the season in the fourth inning, which gave the Guardians a 6-1 lead. The shortstop didn't do much initially after being recalled July 1, but he's gone 4-for-6 with two doubles, a home run and three RBI in two games to start the series against Houston. Rocchio will continue to get the majority of the starts at shortstop while Gabriel Arias (ankle) recovers on the 10-day injured list.

Ramirez went 1-for-3 with two walks, a home run, two RBI, two steals and two additional runs scored in Tuesday's 10-6 extra-inning win over Houston.

Ramirez got the night started with a two-run home run in the first inning to give the Guardians an early lead. It was his second straight game with a homer and his third long ball in the last four games -- it's safe to say Ramirez has moved beyond the 0-for-21 slump he endured last week. He's up to 16 home runs and 24 steals for the season.

Soriano (6-6) took the loss Tuesday against the Rangers, giving up five runs on three hits and five walks in four innings. He struck out four.

The fourth inning was a rather disastrous one for Soriano, who allowed five runs on three hits (two doubles) and three walks in that frame alone after firing three hitless innings to begin his outing. The five walks set a season high as well. While Soriano has logged at least six frames and allowed one run or fewer in five of his last eight outings, he's now yielded at least five runs in the other three appearances during that span. With a 4.00 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 95:52 K:BB through 108 innings for the year, he'll be hard to trust this weekend in a difficult assignment at home versus the Diamondbacks.

Eovaldi (6-3) earned the win Tuesday against the Angels, giving up one unearned run on five hits and no walks in six innings. He struck out six.

With the Rangers jumping out to a 9-0 lead in the fifth inning, Eovaldi pounded the zone for 55 strikes among his 72 pitches. The veteran right-hander hasn't reached the 80-pitch mark in any of his last three outings since coming off the injured list, although Texas did have the luxury of affording him some extra rest with Tuesday's contest getting out of hand anyway. Eovaldi will bring a spectacular 1.62 ERA, 0.85 WHIP and 86:13 K:BB over 83.1 frames into his next appearance, which is slated for this weekend in a stiff matchup against the division-rival Astros in Houston.

Brown didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against the Guardians, giving up six runs on six hits and three walks in six innings. He struck out three.

Brown yielded a season-high six runs, and four of his six hits allowed went for extra bases. It was a rare clunker out of the All-Star right-hander, who has now conceded greater than two runs on just three occasions among his 18 starts on the campaign. Brown still boasts a 2.21 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and 129:32 K:BB across 110 frames, and he's not scheduled to make another appearance until after the All-Star break.

Cantillo didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against the Astros, giving up three runs on five hits and three walks in four innings. He struck out seven.

The seven strikeouts were a season high for Cantillo, who produced his longest outing of the year. The 25-year-old left-hander generated 15 whiffs on the evening, but he's now walked a trio of batters in each of his two starts since joining Cleveland's rotation. Cantillo owns a serviceable 3.79 ERA and 48:20 K:BB over 35.2 innings, but his 1.46 WHIP is a cause for concern. He should still carry some streaming appeal this weekend in scheduled matchup against the lowly White Sox.

Muncy went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 10-1 win over Atlanta.

Muncy has hit safely in eight of his last nine games, going 11-for-32 (.344) with three homers, three doubles and six RBI in that span. The infielder capped a five-run first inning for the Athletics with his blast. Muncy is up to a .222/.268/.404 slash line with eight homers, 22 RBI, 16 runs scored, seven doubles and one stolen base through his first 50 major-league games. It's unclear if Muncy will have a regular spot in the lineup once Miguel Andujar (oblique) completes his rehab assignment.

Rooker went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 10-1 win over Atlanta.

Rooker has been hitting well in recent weeks, going 16-for-60 (.267) with four homers and nine RBI over his last 16 games. The designated hitter was part of a five-homer attack for the Athletics in this contest, putting them ahead 3-0 in the first inning with the second of the team's round trippers. For the season, he's at a .271/.347/.492 slash line with 19 homers, 50 RBI, 56 runs scored, 19 doubles, two triples and two stolen bases over 93 games.
