Orioles and Padres lineups (Smith goes on injured list)

Chris Davis makes it back into the Orioles lineup this afternoon as they close out their road trip against the Padres and try for a split of the two-game series.

Anthony Santander is in center field and Renato Núñez is playing third base. Jace Peterson is in left field after Dwight Smith Jr. reinjured his left calf muscle last night.
