Orioles reinstate C Adley Rutschman, who was on the injured list with left ankle inflammation

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Baltimore Orioles reinstated catcher Adley Rutschman from the injured list before Tuesday night’s game at Kansas City.

Rutschman hasn’t played since April 10 because of left ankle inflammation. He hit .294 with six doubles in his first 10 games of the season.

The Orioles designated catcher Sam Huff for assignment.

Rutschman, a two-time All-Star, is coming off his worst season at the plate. He hit .220 with nine home runs and 29 RBIs last year and played only 90 games.
