    White Sox's Randal Grichuk: Big showing in blowout win

    Grichuk went 3-for-5 with two RBI and a run scored Wednesday against the Twins.

    Grichuk remains stuck on the small side of a platoon in right field, but he managed his third multi-hit performance of the season.

    Dodgers' Andy Pages: Clubs another homer

    Pages went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Rockies.

    Pages hit second against a right-handed pitcher for the first time this season. He's been all over the lineup lately -- he was batting as low as seventh on May 18, but he's steadily worked his way up the order with a surge of offense. He's hit safely in five straight games, going 10-for-21 (.476) in that span with three homers and eight RBI. For the season, the outfielder is batting .303 with an .899 OPS, 13 homers, 50 RBI, 34 runs scored and seven stolen bases across 56 contests.

The 23-year-old now has 22 runs scored through 38 games.

  • Byron Buxton CF | MIN

    Twins' Byron Buxton: Hits homer in loss

    Buxton went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 15-2 loss to the White Sox.

    Buxton hit his team-leading 17th home run to lead off the game against impressive rookie hurler David Sandlin. The Silver Slugger started his third straight game at designated hitter as he deals with right hip soreness and an issue in his right throwing shoulder. Since missing five days because of the hip issue, Buxton has gone 7-for-28 with two home runs and four RBI in seven games.

  • Dodgers' Teoscar Hernandez: Exits with hamstring injury

    Hernandez was removed from Wednesday's game against the Rockies with a left hamstring strain.

    Hernandez was grabbing at his left hamstring after attempting to beat a throw to first base in the second inning, and he was replaced on defense at the start of the third. The severity of the outfielder's injury is still unknown, though a trip to the injured list could be on the table. Alex Call would be the favorite to start in left field if Hernandez needs to miss time.

Happ also provided his first multi-hit game since the May 15 win over the White Sox, now slashing .215/.346/.436 with 11 homers, 26 RBI, 36 runs scored and two stolen bases over 234 plate appearances.

    Dodgers' Kyle Tucker: Getting breather Wednesday

    Tucker isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game against Colorado.

    Tucker has started each of the Dodgers' last nine games and slashed .229/.325/.400 with six RBI, six runs and a steal in that stretch. He'll get a chance to rest his legs Wednesday while Alex Call starts in right field, batting eighth.

  • Rob Refsnyder DH | SEA
