- Dominic Smith 1B: 2 for 3, Run, 2B, RBI, BB, K
- Kevin Plawecki C: 2 for 2, Run, HR, 2 RBI, 2 BB
Rosario tied his career high in steals with 19. Plawecki has been elevating the ball more and might get a shot soon. Smith continues to dominate the league.
- RHP Jonathan Albaladejo (1-0, 0.00 ERA): 7 IP, 4 H, 2 BB, 8 K
- RHP Kevin McGowan (5-3, 4.15 ERA): 1 IP, 2 BB, K

Another start for Reyes, perhaps in place of Chris Flexen. The MLB rotation will likely impact who pitches next time through the rotation.
