Carrigg went 4-for-5 with two home runs, a double and five RBI in Tuesday's 9-3 win over the Padres.

Carrigg had a two-run blast in the third inning and boosted the Rockies' lead with a three-run homer in the sixth. The rookie is up to 10 homers on the season, including four over 13 contests in September. He's batting .270 with an .812 OPS, 45 RBI, 45 runs scored, 21 doubles, four triples and nine stolen bases through 82 games this season.

Adell went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run during the Guardians' 7-6 win over the Guardians on Tuesday.

In a crucial game for control of the AL Central division, Adell got the Guardians on the board early with a two-run homer off Chris Murphy in the first inning. Adell has gone deep in two of his last three outings and has reached base safely in seven of his last eight games, going 9-for-33 (.273) with six RBI, four extra-base hits and seven runs scored in that span.

Hill went 2-for-4 with a solo homer, three RBI and a walk during Tuesday's 10-3 win over the Cardinals.

Hill belted his first career home run in the ninth inning off Cade Winquest to extend the Giants' lead. The 27-year-old also contributed an RBI single and an RBI groundout earlier in the game. Hill is now slashing .250/.351/.363 with one homer and 15 RBI over 97 plate appearances this season.

Clark went 2-for-5 with a double, two RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 10-1 win over the Blue Jays.

The rookie outfielder extended his hitting streak to six games with another dynamic performance, and he's now batting a solid .278 this year with an .805 OPS. Clark is really hitting his stride in September, as he's batting .366 across 12 contests this month with a 1.041 OPS. While he didn't steal a base Tuesday, Clark has also swiped four bags this month. The youngster offers a tantalizing mix of power and speed, and the sky is the limit moving forward for the former No. 3 overall pick as he continues to acclimate to the MLB level.

Lile went 1-for-1 with a three-run home run during the Nationals' 6-3 win over the Phillies on Tuesday.

Lile pinch hit for Dylan Crews in the seventh inning, and the former answered the call by taking Jonathan Bowlan deep to center field for a 407-foot, three-run homer to give the Nationals the lead for good. Lile is up to 21 home runs on the season (fourth-most on the Nationals), along with a .740 OPS and 85 RBI across 615 plate appearances.

The Diamondbacks optioned Troy to Triple-A Reno on Tuesday, Alex D'Agostino of SI.com reports.

Troy went just 1-for-8 with a run scored and three strikeouts in six games after coming off the injured list Sept. 6 and will now move back to the minors to make room for Jesus Sanchez, who was claimed off waivers from Toronto. Barring an injury to one of Arizona's position players, Troy is likely to play out the rest of the season at Reno.

Wood is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies.

After spending a month on the IL due to an oblique injury, Wood returned on Sept. 2 and started the past 10 contests. He's gone 11-for-37 (.297 average) with three doubles, four steals, two RBI and two runs since being activated, but he has seen his home-run drought extend to 18 games. Andres Chaparro is batting second as the designated hitter Tuesday for Washington.
