Impact Farmer was called upon to protect a precarious one-run lead after Brandon Drury hit a go-ahead pinch-hit home run. He shut the door on the Orioles to pick up his first career save. The 31-year-old veteran has only pitched 21 innings so far in 2022 and has a 5.49 ERA.

Luis Cessa - Close to returning Cessa (back) is close to returning from the IL and won't need a rehab stint, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

Impact Cessa has struggled this season, posting a 6.68 ERA and 1.65 WHIP over 31 innings, after being a nice addition last season down the stretch run. However, with the Reds' bullpen decimated, he still might pick up a few holds as the campaign winds down.

Brandon Drury - Not in Sunday's lineup Drury is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

Impact The 29-year-old started the past 22 games and had an .827 OPS during that stretch. Drury will become a free agent during the offseason and is a popular trade target ahead of Tuesday's deadline. Donovan Solano will man third base Sunday for Cincinnati.

Joey Votto - Homers in second straight Votto went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and two walks in an 8-2 victory over the Orioles on Saturday.

Impact Votto went deep for the second game in a row to raise his home-run total to 10 on the year. The veteran first baseman has now posted double-digit home runs in every season since 2015. Votto got off to a miserable start in 2022, and his season-long numbers represent a major drop-off from his impressive 36 home-run season in 2021, when he slashed .266/.375/.563.

Jonathan India - Flashes power in three-hit game India went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run and a double in an 8-2 win over the Orioles on Saturday.

Impact India turned on a letter-high inside fastball from Dean Kremer to pick up his seventh home run of the season and help power the Reds to a victory over the surging Orioles. After struggling through the month of June with a .167 average, India is slashing a quality .259/.337/.459 to go along with four home runs in July. The 25-year-old second baseman showed promise last season by posting a 3.1 Fangraphs WAR in his rookie campaign, so it is possible that he heats up down the stretch.

Jake Fraley - Homers in return Fraley went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run, an RBI single and an additional run scored in an 8-2 win over the Orioles on Saturday.

Impact Fraley made a big impact in his first game back from the 60-day injured list with a knee injury. The 27-year-old left-handed batter belted a two-run home run en route to a three-hit and three-RBI performance. With fellow outfielder Tyler Naquin recently traded to the Mets, there should be plenty of playing time for Fraley down the stretch.

Tyler Mahle - Throws six quality innings for win Mahle (5-7) gave up two earned runs on five hits and no walks while striking out seven over six innings to earn the win in an 8-2 victory over the Orioles on Saturday.

Impact Mahle got into some trouble early in the game and tripped on the mound to balk in a run, but he settled into a groove and strung together five consecutive scoreless innings to earn his fifth win of the season. The 27-year-old right-hander has now thrown four quality starts in a row to lower his ERA to 4.40. Mahle is expected to be a trade-deadline target and could find himself making his next start for a contending team that will likely provide more consistent run support than the Reds. If he is not traded, he tentatively lines up for a start next week at Milwaukee.
