Orioles lineup vs. Angels
By Roch Kubatko
Exactly four years ago today, the Orioles hired Buck Showalter as the 19th manager in franchise history.
No regrets.
Showalter's team is 12 games above .500 and 2 1/2 ahead of the second-place Blue Jays in the American League East.
Delmon Young is serving as the Orioles' designated hitter for the third time in five games. He's 5-for-9 with a three-run homer in his last three appearances and is 4-for-15 (.267) with a homer and two RBIs in his career against Angels right-hander Jered Weaver.
Chris Davis is starting the night on the bench after going hitless in seven at-bats over his last two games to see his average dip to .199. Davis is just 7-for-34 (.206) in his career against Weaver.
