McCarthy went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Guardians.
EDGE Analysis
McCarthy extended his hitting streak to six games (10-for-24), and his go-ahead solo shot in the eighth inning was his fifth extra-base hit during the streak. The outfielder hadn't homered since April 23, just two games before his demotion to Triple-A Reno. He's at two long balls, eight RBI, 18 runs scored, 14 stolen bases and a .233/.296/.357 slash line over 42 contests this year. He's seeing regular playing time thanks to his improved hitting of late, which has pushed Pavin Smith into more of a part-time role.

McCarthy went 2-for-4 with a double, a stolen base and a run scored in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
McCarthy extended his hit streak to a modest four games with a third-inning double and came home on Gabriel Moreno's single. He later stole his 13th base after getting on via a bunt single. The outfielder is 7-for-16 (.438) with two doubles and two triples in those four games. The stolen base snapped a seven-game stretch without an attempt, which ran counter to the speedy McCarthy's behavior since being recalled in late May. He was 10-for-10 in steals over his first 10 games back in the majors.

McCarthy went 1-for-3 with a walk, an RBI and two stolen bases in Tuesday's 10-5 win over Washington.
EDGE Analysis
McCarthy has multiple steals in two straight games and has stolen 10 bags in 10 games since being recalled from Triple-A Reno. The outfielder is getting on base with regularity since rejoining the parent club, which could mean a full season's worth of steals. McCarthy had 23 stolen bases over 99 games in 2022.

McCarthy went 0-for-3 with a walk and two stolen bases in Sunday's 8-5 loss to Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
In his second MLB stint of 2023, McCarthy is showing off the same base-stealing skills he did when he got a second chance in 2022. Since returning from Triple-A Reno on May 26, the outfielder has swiped eight bases in nine games. McCarthy, who had a .229 on-base percentage at the time of his demotion to Reno in late April, has a .355 OBP since his recall.

McCarthy isn't in the Diamondbacks' lineup Saturday against Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
McCarthy has bounced back nicely since returning to the big leagues May 26, slashing .320/.370/.360 with two RBI and six stolen bases. He'll be replaced in right field by Pavin Smith on Saturday, allowing Evan Longoria to serve as Arizona's DH and bat sixth.
