Tucker went 4-for-5 with a two-run homer, two doubles, three total RBI and an additional run scored in Thursday's 8-2 win over the Reds.
Tucker got the Dodgers started early with a two-run shot off Brady Singer in the first inning, his 16th homer this season and his first of three extra-base hits in the victory. While it's been a tough year overall for Tucker, the outfielder seems to have turned a corner down the stretch -- he's now 12-for-29 (.414) with four homers and eight extra-base hits in his last eight games. Tucker's boosted his slash line to .232/.331/.387 across 593 plate appearances with 69 RBI, 85 runs scored and 11 stolen bases.

Dodgers' Kyle Tucker: Continues late-season surge
Rotowire
Tucker went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, an additional run, a stolen base and two walks Monday in a 4-1 win against Cincinnati.
Tucker plated the first run of the game with a solo blast to right field in the second inning. The long ball was his third over his past five games, a span in which the veteran outfielder is batting .389 (7-for-18) with seven RBI, seven runs, one stolen base and a 3:3 BB:K. It's almost certainly too late for Tucker to entirely rescue what has been a rough first season in Los Angeles, as his .702 OPS is far below his .841 mark last year and over 100 points less than his previous career-low mark over a full season. Still, fantasy managers who are still alive in head-to-head playoffs with Tucker on their roster are at least reaping some benefits at the most important time of the year.

On the year, he's slashing .230/.326/.375 with 14 homers, 65 RBI, 78 runs scored and 10 steals across 567 plate appearances.

Dodgers' Kyle Tucker: Pads lead with homer
Rotowire
Tucker went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, a walk and a second run scored in Friday's 5-3 win over the Nationals.
Tucker ended a 22-game power drought with his sixth-inning blast. During that stretch, he hit just .132 (10-for-76) with two doubles, one triple and five RBI. Inconsistency has been a theme for Tucker throughout much of the campaign, but he continues to hold down a starting role in right field. He's batting .226 with a .686 OPS, 12 homers, 59 RBI, 73 runs scored, 20 doubles, three triples and 10 stolen bases over 133 contests.
Tucker went 1-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base in Wednesday's 8-6, extra-inning loss to the Cardinals.
Tucker has gone 11 games without a multi-hit effort, but he has three steals and an 8:3 BB:K in that span. The outfielder is up to 10 steals on the year, though that's a slight disappointment for a player who had logged at least 25 steals in three of the previous four campaigns. He's batting just .227 with a .679 OPS, 11 home runs, 58 RBI, 71 runs scored, 20 doubles and three triples over 131 contests in his first year with the Dodgers.
Dodgers' Kyle Tucker: Exiting lineup against lefty
Rotowire
Tucker is absent from the lineup for Thursday's contest in Atlanta.
Tucker is 1-for-9 at the plate in the first two games of the series and is sporting a lowly .575 OPS in August, so it's not surprising that he'll exit the lineup as Atlanta sends Chris Sale to the mound. Alex Call is in right field and will bat seventh for the Dodgers.
Tucker isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Milwaukee, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.
Tucker will get a chance to reset Saturday after going 0-for-16 with three walks and four strikeouts across his last five games. Alex Call will patrol right field and bat eighth in Tucker's absence.
Tucker is not in the Dodgers' starting lineup against the Royals on Monday, Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Tucker will get an off-day in the midst of a seven-game hitting streak, during which he has gone 9-for-24 with two home runs, three RBI and six runs scored. Tommy Edman will draw the start in left field, shifting Teoscar Hernandez to right while Miguel Rojas gets the nod at the keystone.

Dodgers' Kyle Tucker: Opens scoring with homer
Rotowire
Tucker went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Saturday's 2-1 extra-inning win over the Diamondbacks.
Tucker opened the scoring in the eighth inning with his homer. He's up to 11 long balls on the year, including four over 19 games since the All-Star break, a span in which he's hitting .242 (15-for-62) with six RBI. The outfielder is now hitting .244 overall while adding a .725 OPS, 53 RBI, 64 runs scored, 18 doubles, two triples and seven stolen bases over 110 contests.
Tucker went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in a loss to the Cubs on Tuesday.
Tucker collected half of the Dodgers' four hits and accounted for the team's only run with a second-inning solo blast, his 10th of the campaign. The veteran outfielder has come to life over the first two games of the series against his former club, going 4-for-6 to match the number of hits he had collected across his previous eight contests combined. Tucker remains in the lineup for Wednesday's early matchup, batting fifth and starting in right field.
