Joseph doesn’t have an RBI this year with the Orioles, while hitting .193 with two doubles and six runs scored over 40 games. But he will return when the September rosters expand at the latest.

Pena, the son of Yankees first base coach Tony Pena, has three RBIs and a home run while batting .222 in 11 games with the Orioles this season. He had a single in yesterday’s 5-3 loss to the Astros.
