NBC SportsJames McCann hit a two-run homer and doubled against the Rockies on Sunday.

The homer off Ty Blach was McCann's fifth of the year. At .223-5-22 through 200 plate appearances, he's on pace to almost perfectly match last year's .222-6-26 line in 226 plate appearances.

NBC SportsWalker Buehler allowed four runs -- two earned -- with four strikeouts across 4 2/3 innings in a no-decision against the Orioles on Wednesday.

After a clean first inning, two runners would reach on errors in the second. Ramon Urias then doubled to drive in two runs before James McCann brought in a third with a base hit. A walk and a double would bring in one more run in the fifth before Buehler would exit with two outs in the inning, falling one out short of qualifying for the win. The 30-year-old right-hander will take a 5.88 ERA, 1.63 WHIP, and a 39/18 K/BB ratio across 49 innings into a start against the Diamondbacks in Arizona on Monday.

NBC SportsRamon Urias went 2-for-3 with a double, two RBI, and a run scored against the Dodgers on Wednesday.

He reached on a hit-by-pitch in the fourth, then knocked a base hit to lead off the sixth. The 30-year-old third baseman is slashing .253/.326/.435 with ten homers and 35 RBI across 264 plate appearances.

NBC SportsHunter Brown allowed two runs, one earned, with six strikeouts in six innings of work on Friday against the Orioles in a no-decision.

Brown showed great moxie in this start. He labored through the first three innings, throwing more than 60 pitches, and fought through a brutal error from Jeremy Pena that could have opened the floodgates for Baltimore. Yet, Brown picked up his teammate by striking out Jackson Holliday and James McCann with runners in scoring position and stopped the rally dead in its tracks. You'd be hard-pressed to find a hotter pitcher in baseball right now than Brown. This was his 14th quality start in his last 17 outings and he dropped his ERA down to 3.72. That's a far-cry from 9.78, where it stood at the end of May. He'll look to stay on point in his next scheduled start at home against the Royals.

NBC SportsAdley Rutschman is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.

It appears to be a routine maintenance day for Rutschman, who missed a handful of contests last week due to lower back discomfort. It'll be veteran James McCann handling the catching duties on Tuesday night in his absence.
