Dickerson (knee) is starting in left field and batting second Tuesday against the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
The 30-year-old exited Monday's contest after fouling a pitch off his right knee, but he won't miss a game after X-rays came back negative Tuesday. Dickerson is 13-for-29 with four homers, four doubles, 10 runs and nine RBI in his past eight games.

Dickerson's X-ray came back negative Monday, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson exited Monday's game in the fourth inning after fouling a pitch off his right knee. However, it appears that he avoided serious injury, as the team is calling the injury a contusion. If Dickerson is held out of Tuesday's contest -- or beyond -- Darin Ruf figures to see an uptick in playing time.

Dickerson will sit against lefty Madison Bumgarner and the Diamondbacks on Saturday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson is hitting .542 with four homers in a stretch of five straight multi-hit games, but even that level of performance isn't enough for him to avoid getting platooned in this one. Darin Ruf starts in left field in his absence.

Dickerson went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk and two runs scored in Friday's loss against the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson has now recorded two or more hits in each of his last five contests, knocking at least one double in three straight games. He seems to have received a confidence boost after his three-homer performance on Sept. 1 and is hitting .542 during the aforementioned five-game stretch. He's slashing a career-best .277/.351/.554 on the season.

Dickerson went 5-for-6 with three home runs, two doubles, five runs scored, six RBI and a walk in Tuesday's 23-5 destruction of the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson entered the contest with four home runs in 97 plate appearances. He nearly doubled that total with Tuesday's momentous performance, falling a few feet short of tying the big-league record of four homers in a game when he crushed a 414-foot double in his final at-bat. Among multiple historic footnotes, Dickerson tied Willie Mays' franchise record of 16 total bases in one game and became the 15th major-leaguer in history to collect five extra-base hits in a contest. He also joined Kris Bryant and Matt Carpenter as the only big-leaguers to total three home runs and two doubles in one game. Finally, the five-hit game raised Dickerson's season average a full 40 points, from .221 to .261.

Dickerson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an RBI single in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson opened the scoring with his long ball off Diamondbacks starter Taylor Clarke in the first inning. In the eighth, Dickerson restored the Giants' lead by plating Brandon Crawford with a bases-loaded single. He was then exited the contest for a pinch runner. The 30-year-old Dickerson is slashing .221/.299/.395 with four homers, 14 RBI and 11 runs scored through 30 games this season. He'll likely continue to see playing time on the strong side of a platoon with Darin Ruf in left field.

Dickerson is in the starting lineup for Game 2 of Thursday's doubleheader against the Dodgers, batting sixth and playing left field.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson sat Game 1 with the Giants going up against Clayton Kershaw, but he's back in the fold for Game 2. With the Dodgers going with lefty Caleb Ferguson, Giants' manager Gabe Kapler is likely banking on it being a short start for the southpaw.
