    Reds' Rece Hinds: Makes third start in four games

    Hinds started in right field and went 1-for-4 with a run scored in Saturday's 6-4 loss to San Diego.

    Hinds made his third start in the last four games, with the first two coming against left-handers and Saturday's against a righty. The Reds are shorthanded in the outfield, which factors into Hinds' usage. Austin Hays just returned from a significant foot injury, while both Connor Joe (illness) and Jake Fraley (shoulder) are on the 10-day injured list. Hinds is 2-for-11 with five strikeouts and two runs scored in his three starts.

    Reds' Austin Hays: Held out Saturday

    Hays opened Saturday's game on the bench but eventually entered as a pinch hitter and went 0-for-1 in a loss to the Padres.

    Hays was activated off the injured list Friday and served as the designated hitter for that game. He finished out Saturday's contest as the DH after pinch hitting for Gavin Lux. Hays had missed nearly a month with a foot injury, and it appears manager Terry Francona is easing him back into the lineup and eventually left field.

  • Ketel Marte 2B | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte: Snaps hitless streak

    Marte went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Saturday's 8-7 loss to the Marlins.

    Marte's three-run shot in the fourth inning snapped an 0-for-11 streak, his longest hitless stretch of the season. With the home run, he became the third player in Diamondbacks history to drive in 500 runs for the club. Marte's been remarkably consistent in 2025, which factors into him being atop the All-Star voting at second base in the NL.

  • James McCann C | ARI

    Diamondbacks' James McCann: Two hits in Saturday's loss

    McCann went 2-for-3 with a double, an RBI and two runs scored in Saturday's 8-7 loss to Miami.

    McCann made his second start behind the plate since the Diamondbacks signed him Monday. The veteran backstop was drilled by a pitch on the hand Saturday but was able to stay in the game. He's expected to split work behind the dish with Jose Herrera until Gabriel Moreno (finger) returns from the injured list.

  • Diamondbacks' Geraldo Perdomo: Records three hits in loss

    Perdomo went 3-for-5 with a double, an RBI and two runs scored in Saturday's 8-7 loss to the Marlins.

    Perdomo doubled to lead off the bottom of the first inning and scored, and he then came home on Ketel Marte's three-run home run in the fourth. Perdomo is enjoying a productive run as the leadoff or second batter in the order while Corbin Carroll (wrist) is on the mend. He's hit safely in eight of nine games, going 12-for-40 (.300) with two doubles, two homers, eight RBI, a stolen base and eight runs scored. The shortstop is second on the team in RBI (57) and fourth in runs (45).

  • Ryan Feltner SP | COL

    Rockies' Ryan Feltner: Ramps up to 66 pitches

    Feltner (back) allowed six runs (five earned) on seven hits and four walks while striking out three batters over 3.2 innings in the third start of his rehab assignment Friday with Triple-A Albuquerque.

    Feltner built up to 66 pitches in the outing, but he struggled with both his command and control. The right-hander is expected to make one more rehab start before making his return from the 60-day injured list shortly before the All-Star break, per MLB.com reports.

  • Seiya Suzuki RF | CHC

    Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Homers, triples in big victory

    Suzuki went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run, an additional run and a triple against the Astros in a 12-3 win Saturday.

    Suzuki tripled and scored in the fourth inning and added a two-run homer in the eighth. The 30-year-old outfielder has been racking up extra-base hits this season -- among his 83 total knocks, 44 have gone for extra bases. Suzuki set a career high with his 22nd homer Saturday, and with 69 RBI he's very close to the career-best mark of 74 that he established in 2023.

  • Michael Busch 1B | CHC

    Cubs' Michael Busch: Knocks in three runs in rout

    Busch went 2-for-4 with a home run, a walk and three total RBI in a 12-3 victory versus Houston on Saturday.

    Busch plated the first run of the game when he drew a bases-loaded walk in the first inning. He added a solo homer in the fourth and capped his performance with a run-scoring single in the eighth. The first baseman has been quite productive of late, swatting three homers and driving in 10 runs over his past eight contests. He has 14 long balls and 49 runs batted in on the campaign, putting him well ahead of pace to surpass his marks of 21 home runs and 65 RBI last season.

  • Kyle Tucker RF | LAD

    Cubs' Kyle Tucker: Homers, racks up four hits

    Tucker went 4-for-5 with a home run, a double, a stolen base, four total runs and three total RBI in a 12-3 rout of the Astros on Saturday.

    Tucker contributed to a seven-run fourth inning with a three-run blast to right field. He collected three more knocks to finish with his second four-hit performance of the campaign, while the four runs and three RBI both tied his season-best marks. Tucker added his 20th stolen base of the season for good measure, making him one of three players this season (along with Elly De La Cruz and teammate Pete Crow-Armstrong) to tally at least 15 home runs and at least 20 thefts.

  • Colin Rea SP | CHC

    Cubs' Colin Rea: Bounces back with victory

    Rea (5-3) earned the win over Houston on Saturday, allowing two runs on five hits and no walks while striking out two batters over five innings.

    Rea was pounded for four homers and seven runs in his previous start, but he gave up a much more palatable one homer and two runs Saturday. While he notched just three whiffs and one punchout, the right-hander didn't issue a free pass and took advantage of ample run support to snap a streak of four straight winless starts. This was presumably Rea's final appearance in June, and the month was certainly a mixed bag for him -- he gave up two or fewer runs in three of his five outings, but in his other two starts he was tagged for a combined 11 runs over 9.2 frames.
