  • Giants' Victor Bericoto: Hits first career home run

    Bericoto went 1-for-3 with a solo home run during Wednesday's 1-0 win over the Brewers.

    Bericoto crushed an opposite-field home run off Robert Gasser in the fifth to score the only run of the game for either team. Bericoto has primarily been playing in right field since being called up May 22. He has only 12 plate appearances in eight games, going 3-for-12 with a caught stealing in addition to his first MLB homer.

  • Wilyer Abreu RF | BOS

    Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Drills seventh homer in win

    Abreu went 2-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in Wednesday's 8-1 win over the Orioles.

    Abreu's previous homer came during the May 8 win over the Rays, so Wednesday's long ball snapped a 20-game power drought. Additionally, the three RBI established a season high. Abreu is putting together a quality campaign as Boston's top right fielder, slashing .283/.345/.435 with seven home runs, 12 doubles, 28 RBI and four stolen bases across 256 plate appearances.

  • Aaron Judge RF | NYY

    Yankees' Aaron Judge: Slated for additional imaging

    Manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday that Judge (ribs) will undergo additional imaging, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

    Judge has been dealing with shoulder soreness for the past couple of weeks. Initial imaging determined it to be a result of a bone bruise in his ribs, but now that he's missed two consecutive games, the Yankees are going to send him in for another round of tests to make sure he isn't dealing with a more significant injury. He can be considered day-to-day while the team waits for his results to come back.

  • Sam Antonacci LF | CHW

    White Sox's Sam Antonacci: Erupts for four hits Wednesday

    Antonacci went 4-for-4 with a walk, two doubles, two runs scored and an RBI in Wednesday's 8-0 win over the Twins.

    The rookie leadoff hitter actually reached base six times in the rout, as he was hit by a pitch in his final plate appearance. Antonacci has four multi-hit performances in the last eight games and has an .871 OPS during that stretch. He's boosted his slash line on the season to .291/.383/.391 with one homer, eight steals, 14 RBI and 27 runs over 45 contests since he was called up in mid-April.

  • Rays' Cedric Mullins: Cranks fourth homer Wednesday

    Mullins went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 7-2 loss to the Tigers.

    Mullins smashed his fourth homer of the year Wednesday, which is just his ninth extra-base hit of the year. He hasn't been very effective at the plate during his first year with the Rays. Through 202 plate appearances, the 31-year-old outfielder is slashing .186/.268/.288 with four homers, 17 RBI, 10 stolen bases and 20 runs scored. Even so, Jonny DeLuca's (hamstring) multi-week absence should allow Mullins to maintain regular playing time for the time being.

  • Jesus Sanchez DH | ARI

    Blue Jays' Jesus Sanchez: Good to go Wednesday

    Sanchez (wrist) is batting cleanup as the designated hitter Wednesday against Atlanta.

    After sitting out Tuesday's series opener due a bruised wrist caused by a stray ball thrown from the stands Sunday, Sanchez will rejoin the lineup Wednesday in a non-defensive capacity. The veteran outfielder has been a key lineup piece for Toronto so far in 2026 with six home runs, 28 RBI, 19 runs and a .286/.322/.458 slash line in 58 games.

  • Brewers' Jackson Chourio: Riding bench Wednesday

    Chourio is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against San Francisco.

    After going a combined 4-for-8 with four RBIs, three walks and four runs in the first two games of the series, Chourio will receive the day off Wednesday. This will be Chourio's second rest day since making his season debut May 4. The 22-year-old has slashed .284/.348/.431 with two home runs in 102 at-bats since coming off of the injured list. Jake Bauers will replace Chourio in left field and bat fifth.

  • Drew Gilbert CF | SF

    Giants' Drew Gilbert: Sitting out Wednesday

    Gilbert is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against Milwaukee, reports Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle.

    The Brewers are sending left-hander Robert Gasser to the bump, so the left-handed hitting Gilbert will ride the pine. San Francisco will send out Casey Schmitt, Jung Hoo Lee and Victor Bericoto to make up the outfield.

  • Aaron Judge RF | NYY

    Yankees' Aaron Judge: Remaining out of lineup

    Judge (ribs/shoulder) is out of the lineup Wednesday against Cleveland for a second consecutive night.

    Judge will sit against the Guardians once again after being diagnosed with a bone bruise in his ribs, which is causing soreness in his right shoulder. Jose Caballero will start in right field for the second straight night and bat sixth.

  • Samad Taylor LF | SD

    Padres' Samad Taylor: Added to MLB roster

    The Padres selected Taylor's contract from Triple-A El Paso on Wednesday.

    Taylor was elevated to the big-league club after slashing .319/.406/.500 with the Triple-A squad. The 25-year-old was most recently in the majors with Seattle in 2025, though he recorded just eight at-bats. Taylor will replace Nick Castellanos on the active roster after the latter was designated for assignment.
