Sitting versus righty again
Cowser is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game in Minnesota.
Analysis
Righty Zebby Matthews is on the bump for the Twins, and this marks the second day in a row that the lefty-swinging Cowser has been held out of the lineup against a right-hander. Cowser is slashing just .164/.301/.230 since the beginning of July. He'll again yield center field to Christian Franklin.

Delivers homer in win
Cowser went 2-for-4 with a home run, a walk and two RBI in Sunday's 10-5 win over the Rangers.
Analysis
Cowser added to Baltimore's early lead by taking Kumar Rocker deep for a solo homer in the second inning, giving him nine home runs on the season. He later drew a bases-loaded walk in the ninth to secure his first multi-RBI performance since June 21. Cowser had struggled mightily over the past month entering Sunday, batting just .121 across his previous 29 games with only one RBI.
