Tawa went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Thursday's 7-4 extra-inning loss to the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Tawa's fifth-inning home run put Arizona up 4-1. The homer was the third in five games for the 26-year-old, who has six extra-base knocks among his nine hits (.389 ISO) over 36 at-bats. Tawa was making his fifth straight start Thursday in place of Ketel Marte (hamstring), while Garrett Hampson last started at second base a week ago. Marte just began a running program, but Arizona has yet to indicate when he might be ready for a rehab assignment.

Tawa went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-1 win over Tampa Bay.

EDGE Analysis

Tawa gave the Diamondbacks some cushion with a home run in the fifth inning that increased their lead to 3-1. It was his third consecutive start at second base and fifth in the last six games, during which he's popped three home runs. Tawa's last three hits have left the park. The primary starter at second base, Ketel Marte (hamstring), has begun baseball activities, but he's not running yet. That means Tawa's run of regular at-bats should continue for at least another week.

Tawa went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Arizona's bats were mostly quiet on the day. Tawa's homer in the ninth inning, his second of the season, was one of only four hits for the team -- Corbin Carroll had the other three. Tawa has reached base safely in six of seven starts and is slashing .217/.321/.522 over nine outings since being called up to help fill in for the injured Ketel Marte (hamstring) at second base.

Tawa has appeared in six games (five starts) this season and has gone 4-for-18 with one walk, four runs scored, one home run and five RBI.

EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis

Tawa capped the Diamondbacks' five-run fifth inning with a two-run single that plated Alek Thomas and Jake McCarthy. Tawa started at second base for the third time in five games since Ketel Marte (hamstring) was added to the 10-day injured list. He and Garrett Hampson have alternated starts. With Marte expected to miss a "series of weeks," per manager Torey Lovullo, Tawa is in position to see ample opportunities through the end of the month.

Tawa started at second base and went 0-for-3 in Monday's 5-1 loss to the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

Tawa made his second start in the three games since being called up from Triple-A Reno in the wake of Ketel Marte's hamstring injury. He's gone hitless over six at-bats since singling in his first MLB plate appearance. Tawa was instrumental in ending Zac Gallen's night by not receiving the ball cleanly on a potential inning-ending double play, which allowed a run to score and led to Ryan Mountcastle's two-run single that led to Gallen getting the hook.

Arizona manager Torey Lovullo suggested that Tawa will get the majority of playing time at second base while Ketel Marte (hamstring) is on the injured list, Paige Leckie of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tawa, who was called up from Triple-A Reno on Saturday, made his MLB debut later that day in a 4-3 loss to the Nationals. He started at the keystone and went 1-for-3 with a walk, an RBI and a run scored. Though Garrett Hampson came off the bench Friday to fill in for Marte when he got hurt, Lovullo said that he'll likely keep Hampson in a utility role and use him only occasionally at second base while Marte is on the shelf.

Tawa is starting at second base and batting ninth in Saturday's game against Washington.

EDGE Analysis

Tawa was called up from Triple-A Reno prior to Saturday's contest, and he'll get a chance to make an impression right away by starting at the keystone in what will be his MLB debut. Tawa's opportunity comes as a result of Ketel Marte (hamstring) landing on the injured list Saturday. In six games at Reno prior to his call-up, Tawa slashed .391/.462/.957 with three home runs, 13 RBI, eight runs and two stolen bases.
