OAKLAND – Austin Hays gets another start in left field this afternoon after collecting three hits last night on his 29th birthday. He’s matched up against Athletics right-hander Luis Medina.

Colton Cowser is on the bench. Cedric Mullins starts in center field, Ryan O’Hearn is in right and Anthony Santander is the designated hitter.

Ramón Urías starts at third base, with Jordan Westburg shifting to second and Jorge Mateo going to the bench.

Ryan Mountcastle moves down to sixth in the order.

Left-hander Cade Povich makes his sixth major league start. He’s allowed six runs in his last five outings to match the total in his debut.

Povich’s strikeout rate against left-handed batters is 9.5 percent, compared to 18.1 percent against right-handers.

The Orioles are 39-9 when scoring first. They’ve won seven of their last nine games and lead the Yankees by three.

Medina has made six starts this season and registered a 4.80 ERA and 1.500 WHIP in 30 innings. He’s walked 15 batters but surrendered only two home runs.

Medina allowed one run in 5 2/3 innings against the Royals on June 19 and one in six innings in Arizona on Sunday. His only appearance against the Orioles came last year in relief at home, when he allowed three earned runs and four total in three innings.
