MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Baltimore Orioles on Sunday activated infielder Ryan Mountcastle from the 10-day injured list. Mountcastle last played on June 8 but has since been sidelined with vertigo. The 26-year-old Mountcastle was batting .227 with 11 home runs and 39 RBI before landing on the IL. To make room for Mountcastle on the roster, Baltimore optioned left-hander Bruce Zimmermann to Triple-A Norfolk. Mountcastle batted .244 through April but struggled at the plate leading up to his time on the IL. He hit just .158 (9 for 57) in his 15 games before his IL stint.
