Antonacci went 3-for-4 with three doubles, two RBI and two runs scored Sunday against the Twins.

Antonacci drove in both his runs with a deep double to center field in the sixth inning. The 23-year-old broke out of a mild September slump, as he was batting .125 (2-for-16) with one RBI through his first five games this month. The rookie's strong contact and on-base skills (.268 batting average and .367 OBP) have helped him maintain a solid grip on the leadoff spot in the White Sox lineup.

Tatis went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Yankees

He was the first of three Padres to hit a home run in the first inning with an opposite field blast off Gerrit Cole, Tatis' 20th long ball of the season. This was his third leadoff homer this season as he continues his hot hitting since the All-Star break. The 27-year-old has a .960 OPS with 15 home runs and 36 RBI in 46 games during that span.

Jones went 1-for-3 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Padres.

With the Yankees down 4-0, Jones got his team on the board with a RBI double in the eighth inning and then was able to score on an error by Adrian Morejon. Jones had a great series against San Diego, going 4-for-11 (.364) with three RBI. The 25-year-old could be set to receive consistent playing time down the stretch, as Trent Grisham is potentially out for the rest of the season with a calf strain.

White went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Orioles.

White provided all of the club's offense from the ninth spot in the batting order, launching a three-run blast off Kyle Bradish in the second inning. The 32-year-old has drawn four straight starts, replacing the injured Ceddanne Rafaela (quadriceps), and is in the midst of a six-game hitting streak, tallying four extra-base hits and eight RBI during that stretch. For the year, he's slashing .246/.291/.404 with six homers, 28 RBI, 27 runs scored and five steals across 196 plate appearances with Atlanta and Boston.

Bolte went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Sunday's 2-0 loss to the Mariners.

Bolte's single was the Athletics' lone hit of the game, and even the steal wasn't enough to manufacture a run. He has hit safely in 10 of his last 14 games, going 19-for-59 (.322) over that span. The rookie outfielder is batting .274 with a .738 OPS, eight home runs, 16 steals, 31 RBI, 43 runs scored, 13 doubles and one triple over 101 contests this season.

Moniak went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and an additional RBI in Sunday's 10-8 loss to the Cardinals.

Moniak hit an RBI single in the first inning and then added his homer in the third, both off Kyle Leahy. Prior to Sunday, Moniak had gone 0-for-7 over his last three games, and he had gone 12 contests without a homer. For the season, the veteran outfielder is batting .251 with a .791 OPS, 22 homers, 64 RBI, 47 runs scored, 16 doubles, four triples and one stolen base over 103 games.

McCarthy went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, three total RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 10-8 loss to the Cardinals.

McCarthy is batting .324 (12-for-37) over his last nine games, adding five extra-base hits and four steals in that span. The outfielder is also up to 75 RBI on the year, a strong number for a player who has primarily worked out of the leadoff spot. He's at a .293 average, .821 OPS, 15 home runs, 29 doubles, eight triples, 29 stolen bases and 71 runs scored over 128 contests.

Simpson went 2-for-5 with a stolen base and two runs scored in Sunday's 8-6 loss to the Rangers.

Simpson logged his first steal of September in the seventh inning of this contest. He's been putting bat to ball fairly well lately, logging eight multi-hit efforts over his last 14 games. The light-hitting speedster is 39-for-53 on the basepaths this season while batting .308 with a .696 OPS, 31 RBI, 57 runs scored, 14 doubles, six triples and no home runs over 135 games.

Acuna went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double and four RBI in Sunday's 5-4 win over the Phillies.

Acuna got Atlanta on the board with a sacrifice fly in the sixth inning before tying the game on a three-run blast in the eighth. The 28-year-old has now hit safely in four straight contests, collecting 10 hits, three homers and nine RBI in that span. For the season, he's slashing .255/.351/.446 with 16 long balls, 45 RBI, 52 runs scored and 20 steals across 396 plate appearances.

The Astros optioned Meyers to Triple-A Sugar Land on Sunday.

Meyers was brought up earlier in the week when rosters expanded, though he did not end up logging an at-bat during his latest stint in the majors. The 30-year-old outfielder loses his spot on the active roster to waiver acquisition Jorge Barrosa, and at this point, Meyers does not appear long for the 40-man roster.
