Bryan Reynolds - 20-game hitting streak Reynolds went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk Sunday against the Rays.
Impact Reynolds extended his hitting streak to 20 games with an infield single in the first, then later tied the game with a fourth-inning blast that just cleared the wall in right. It was the 12th home run for Reynolds who has collected five of those during this current hit streak that spans the entirety of the month of June.

Josh Fleming - Resumes working out of bullpen Fleming retired the lone batter he faced in relief Friday in the Pirates' 10-3 loss to the Rays.
Impact Fleming was back in the bullpen for the beginning of the Pirates' three-game set with Tampa Bay after he made a four-inning spot start in Colorado in his previous outing this past Sunday. The veteran southpaw has just one save and one hold among his 17 relief appearances on the season and will likely be relegated to lower-leverage spots even after the Pirates placed closer David Bednar (oblique) on the injured list Sunday.

Yandy Díaz - Hitting streak up to 16 Diaz went 3-for-4 with a solo home run Sunday against the Pirates.
Impact Diaz tagged Pirates' starter Paul Skenes early, depositing the first pitch of the game off the foul pole in right field for his sixth homer of the season. He later led off the eighth with his third hit, which eventually saw pinch-runner Jose Caballero to cross the plate with the go-ahead run. Diaz extended his hitting streak to 16 games in the process, collecting his ninth multiple hit effort during that stretch and fourth multi-hit game over the last five. He's batting 26-for-71 (.366) during the streak.
