Turang went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Phillies.

Turang has stolen four bases over his last five games to give him 45 thefts on the year. That's good for third in the majors behind only Shohei Ohtani (49) and Elly De La Cruz (64). Turang is batting .293 (17-for-58) in September, an improvement on his .258 average for the year. His place atop the order has helped him be moderately productive despite a .677 OPS, as he's added 69 runs scored, 54 RBI, seven home runs, 23 doubles and four triples over 146 contests.

Hoskins went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a double in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Phillies.

Hoskins had the only multi-hit effort for either team in the contest, which was his first such performance since Aug. 30. He's gone just 9-for-43 (.209) over 14 games in September, though three of his hits this month have left the yard. The first baseman's blast was his 25th this season, a milestone he's reached in his last five full-length seasons. He's still had some difficulty with contact, batting .212 over 122 games while adding 74 RBI, 53 runs scored and three stolen bases across 122 contests in 2024 after missing all of 2023 with a torn ACL.

Solano went 1-for-4 with a solo home run during Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Astros.

Solano salvaged his stat line with an eighth-inning solo homer off Kaleb Ort, the infielder's seventh long ball of the campaign. In September, Solano is 8-for-37 (.216) with five runs and two RBI.

Peralta allowed one run on two hits and two walks while striking out nine over five innings in a no-decision versus the Phillies on Wednesday.

Peralta limited the Phillies to an Alec Bohm solo home run in the second inning. While he hasn't been pitching particularly deep into games -- Peralta has gone six innings just twice over his last seven starts -- he's allowed just nine runs with a 34:17 K:BB over 37 innings in that span. For the season, he's at a 3.69 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 193:66 K:BB through a career-high 168.1 innings over 31 starts. The Brewers clinched the NL Central on Wednesday but are currently behind the Phillies and Dodgers as division leaders, so they'll still have something to play for while trying to line up their postseason rotation. Peralta is projected to make his next start at Pittsburgh.

Machado went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs during Saturday's 4-0 win over the Astros.

It's Machado's second multi-homer performance in 11 games -- the third baseman is 17-for-45 with eight multi-hit games, six home runs and 18 RBI in that stretch. Machado boasts an .814 OPS in 609 plate appearances for the season.

Cease (14-11) picked up the win Wednesday against the Astros, allowing two hits and no walks with five strikeouts across 8.1 scoreless innings.

Cease couldn't quite go the distance Wednesday, falling two outs short of a shutout as he was pulled after 103 pitches. Still, it was a masterful performance from the 28-year-old, especially considering he had allowed three or more runs in three of his previous four starts. Through 184.1 innings, Cease has a 3.42 ERA and 1.05 WHIP. His 220 strikeouts rank second in baseball. He's tentatively scheduled for a road start against the Dodgers next week.

Harris went 1-for-5 with a solo home run during Wednesday's 7-1 win over the Reds.

Harris lifted his 13th home run of the campaign Wednesday, tagging Justin Wilson for a solo shot in the eighth inning. Harris has gone yard in back-to-back games and has four homers in his last eight outings. During that stretch, Harris is 11-for-36 (.306) with seven runs, six RBI and a stolen base.

Ozuna went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, two doubles, two runs scored and two total RBI during Wednesday's 7-1 win over the Reds.

Ozuna snapped a streak of 26 games without a home run, taking Tony Santillan yard in the seventh inning. In September, Ozuna is 17-for-56 (.304) with seven runs, two RBI and almost as many walks (10) as strikeouts (11).

Junis didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against Atlanta, allowing one run on two hits with no walks across six innings. He struck out six.

Junis retired the first 11 batters and final nine batters he faced during the start, but back-to-back doubles in the fourth inning threw a wrench in his otherwise perfect day. In his last five outings (four starts), Junis has a 1.14 ERA and an 18:1 K:BB across 23.2 innings. He's tentatively scheduled to face the Guardians in Cleveland his next time out.

Crews went 0-for-4 with a stolen base in Wednesday's 10-0 loss to the Mets.

Crews was hitless for the third time in five games but still swiped a bag after getting aboard on a fielder's choice in the first inning. His speed has translated quickly at the major-league level with nine thefts on 11 attempts over his first 21 games. The bat hasn't been quite as good -- he's hitting .232 and slugging .390 with three home runs, eight RBI, eight runs scored and four doubles while seeing plenty of playing time in right field. It's also encouraging he was back to second in the order after finding success with a 3-for-4 performance batting seventh in Tuesday's contest.
