Reaches 20-homer mark Outman went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 6-3 win over the Mariners.

He's now at 20 long balls this season while adding 65 RBI, 77 runs scored, 15 stolen bases, 14 doubles, three triples and a .248/.356/.433 slash line over 137 contests in his first full campaign.

Hits go-ahead homer Rojas went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 6-3 win over the Mariners.

Impact Rojas snapped a 20-game homer drought with his go-ahead blast in the fifth inning. The infielder was at least productive during the power drought, going 19-for-64 (.297) in that span, though he picked up just four RBI. He's seen steady playing time at shortstop this year, posting a .237/.293/.322 slash line with four homers, 29 RBI, 45 runs scored and eight stolen bases through 113 contests.

Notches 23rd save Phillips allowed two hits and struck out one in a scoreless inning to earn the save in Friday's 6-3 win over the Mariners.

Impact Phillips again flirted with danger after taking a loss in his outing Monday versus the Padres. He had runners on the corners with two outs but got Teoscar Hernandez to strike out to end the threat. Phillips is 23-for-25 in save chances while adding six saves this season, and he's maintained a 2.43 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and 61:11 K:BB through 55.2 innings. He's converted his last 11 save chances in a row.

One out shy of quality start Miller (10-3) allowed three runs on six hits and two walks while striking out seven over 5.2 innings to earn the win over the Mariners on Friday.

Impact Miller came up an out short of a quality start, but was still able to earn his fourth win in his last six starts. In that span, he's given up 18 runs over 38 innings. The rookie right-hander is at a 4.02 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 99:30 K:BB through 107.1 innings through 19 starts this season. Miller's projected for a favorable home start versus the Tigers next week.

To pitch Sunday Stone will pitch "bulk innings" Sunday against the Mariners, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Stone pitched as a traditional starter Monday and struggled across 5.1 innings against San Diego. Manager Dave Roberts' wording suggests that Stone will follow an opener, though it's unclear who will fill that role. Emmet Sheehan was originally projected to start Sunday but could throw a short outing instead with the Dodgers likely monitoring his innings carefully.
