middle infielders

Baltimore pitching had no answers for a Guardians offense that had been awful prior to coming to Camden Yards.

Aaron Hicks was starting in center field and batting sixth in the series finale against Cleveland.

With the catalyst to the Orioles offense gone for at least a few weeks, Luke Jones and Nestor address the loss of Cedric Mullins to Orioles mojo and how Mike Elias and Brandon Hyde will search for other answers in June as the center fielder nurses an ailing right groin.

Anthony Santander and Gunnar Henderson each drove in three runs for Baltimore, who is now 35-20.

The Orioles GM expressed much confidence in the 23-year-old getting back on track at Triple-A Norfolk.

General manager Mike Elias hopes Mullins' return from a groin injury will be "best measured in weeks instead of months."

Cedric Mullins entered Memorial Day leading Baltimore in runs batted in and wins above replacement.

Baltimore has lost three of four and scored just 11 runs over its last 46 innings at the plate.
