Sánchez in tonight's Orioles lineup, Westburg remains on bench

Gary Sanchez

ARLINGTON, Texas – Gary Sánchez stays in the Orioles lineup tonight after being hit on the finger last night in the eighth inning.

The X-rays must have come back negative because Sánchez is the designated hitter. Jacob Stallings makes his first start with the Orioles.

Jordan Westburg is out of the lineup for a fifth consecutive day due to soreness in his left index finger.

Ramón Laureano is playing right field and batting second. Ryan O’Hearn is the first baseman and cleanup hitter. Coby Mayo is on the bench.

On a busy day, the Orioles also signed infielder/outfielder Jose Barrero to a minor league contract.
