ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – The Orioles’ first lineup of the 2022 season includes Austin Hays in right field and Anthony Santander in left against the Rays at Tropicana Field.

Ramón Uriás is at second base and Jorge Mateo is at shortstop.

Kelvin Gutiérrez is batting ninth and playing third base.

Reliever Dillon Tate said he had strep throat, which prevented him from pitching after March 26. He’s fine now and available out of the bullpen.
