Manager Buck Showalter is sticking with the hot hand.

Craig Gentry is in right field with the Mariners starting left-hander Ariel Miranda.

Manny Machado is batting .345 with 12 home runs and 34 RBIs in 27 games this month. His 12 home runs are a career-high for a single month.

Tim Beckham has hit safely in 25 of 27 games with the Orioles.

According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Dylan Bundy became the first pitcher last night to allow a bunt single in a one-hit shutout since Bobby Witt of the Athletics on June 23, 1994.

Also from Elias, Bundy ended the Orioles’ streak of 479 games without a shutout, the longest in the majors.

Triple-A Norfolk’s Pedro Álvarez has been named the designated hitter on the International League All-Star team.
