Belts eighth homer
Basallo went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 6-1 win over the Rays.
Analisi
The 21-year-old slugger took Trevor Martin deep in the fifth inning for the game's final burst of offense. Three of Basallo's eight long balls on the season have come in his last nine games, but he's still having trouble making consistent contact, batting .214 (6-for-28) during that stretch with a 33.3 percent strikeout rate.

Sitting out versus left-hander
Basallo is out of the lineup for Monday's game versus the Rays.
Analisi
The left-handed-hitting Basallo will get a break as the Rays send southpaw Shane McClanahan to the bump. Adley Rutschman will do the catching, Gunnar Henderson is getting a start at designated hitter and Blaze Alexander will slide into the lineup at shortstop for the Orioles on Monday.

Resting for early game
Basallo is out of the lineup for the first game of Sunday's doubleheader versus the Tigers, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Analisi
With southpaw Framber Valdez taking the hill for the Tigers in the first game of the twin bill, Basallo will be given a breather while Baltimore goes with Adley Rutschman behind the plate and Taylor Ward at designated hitter. Basallo will most likely handle catching duties for the Orioles in the nightcap.
