Resting for early game Basallo is out of the lineup for the first game of the Orioles' doubleheader with the Astros.

Impact Adley Rutschman will handle catching duties for the first game of the twin bill, but Basallo will presumably draw the start behind the plate for the nightcap. After producing four extra-base hits (two home runs, two doubles) over his last four games, Basallo has raised his season OPS nearly 200 points.

Homers again Sunday Basallo went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Red Sox.

Impact Basallo, who started at catcher Sunday with Adley Rutschman serving as the DH, got the Orioles on the board in the fifth inning with a 392-foot blast off Connelly Early, his fifth homer of the season and first against a left-handed pitcher. The 21-year-old Basallo has now homered in back-to-back starts while going 6-for-9 in that span. He's boosted his slash line to .233/.325/.452 with eight RBI and 10 runs scored through his first 83 plate appearances this season.

Big day in Friday's win Basallo went 4-for-5 with a double and a solo home run in Friday's 10-3 win over the Red Sox.

Impact The 21-year-old slugger drove a Brayan Bello cutter into the right-center field seats in the third inning, one of six Baltimore homers on the night. Basallo has three multi-hit performances in the last eight games as he puts his early-season struggles behind him, batting .360 (9-for-25) over that stretch with two homers, four RBI and more walks (four) than strikeouts (three).

Timely hitting in win Basallo went 2-for-3 with two RBI, a run scored and two walks in Monday's 7-5 victory over the Royals.

Impact Basallo came through in the clutch, tying Monday's contest with an RBI single in the ninth inning off Lucas Erceg before adding another RBI single in the 12th to give the Orioles the lead. It's been a slow start to the season for the catcher, who's slashing .167/.275/.317 through 17 games, though it's worth noting the former top prospect is just 21 years old with only 48 games of big-league experience. Adley Rutschman (ankle) is likely to return from the injured list in the near future, but Basallo should continue to see considerable playing time.
