Jordan Walker - Big day in Saturday's win Walker went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a stolen base in Saturday's 6-5 win over the Reds.

Impact The 24-year-old took Nick Lodolo deep in the fifth inning, snapping a brief 10-game power drought. Walker has strung together three straight multi-hit efforts, boosting the breakout star's slash line on the season to .301/.362/.559 through 61 contests with 16 homers, 10 steals, 43 runs and 46 RBI.

Matthew Liberatore - Escapes with no-decision Saturday Liberatore didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 6-5 win over the Reds, giving up five runs (three earned) on four hits and three walks over 4.1 innings. He struck out four...

Impact The Cardinals grabbed a 3-0 lead in the bottom of the second inning, but Liberatore promptly gave up back in the top of the third before getting tagged for two more runs the following frame, eventually getting lifted after 84 pitches (47 strikes). It's the fourth time in his last five trips to the mound that he's allowed at least three earned runs, a stretch in which he's stumbled to a 5.18 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 32:10 K:BB through 24.1 innings. He'll look to bounce back in his next outing, which is set to come on the road next weekend in Minnesota.

Blake Dunn - Three hits Saturday Dunn went 3-for-4 with a double, a run scored and a stolen base in Saturday's 6-5 loss to the Cardinals.

Impact Getting the start in left field against southpaw Matthew Liberatore while Dane Myers covered center field, Dunn delivered his third straight multi-hit performance while swiping his third bag of the season. The 27-year-old has seized a regular role in the Cincinnati outfield by batting .324 (23-for-71) over his last 17 games with one homer, two steals, four RBI and 10 runs.

Nick Lodolo - No-decision in St. Louis Lodolo didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 6-5 loss to the Cardinals, giving up four runs on nine hits and a walk over five-plus innings. He struck out three.

Impact The southpaw got tagged for three runs in the second inning and another in the fifth on a Jordan Walker solo shot, but Lodolo actually left the mound with the Reds nursing a 5-4 lead, only for the bullpen to blow it late. Lodolo has lasted at least five innings in five of six starts since making his season debut in early May due to blister issues, managing a 5.51 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 25:14 K:BB over 32.2 innings while serving up eight homers. He'll look to produce a sharper outing in his next trip to the mound, which lines up to come at home next weekend against the Diamondbacks.
