 Carlos Santana leads Cleveland in home runs (17), RBI (47), walks (56) and hits (79) this season. The only other American Leaguer to lead his team in all four of those categories this season is Mike Trout.

 Jason Kipnis is batting .500 (10-for-20) with two home runs and 10 RBI over his last six games. During this stretch of play, Kipnis has raised his season batting average from .213 to .240 and his slugging percentage from .318 to .369.
