Infielder Tim Beckham has been activated from the disabled list by the last-place Baltimore Orioles
Ryan McMahon Colorado Rockies Jersey , who finally have the starting lineup they anticipated when spring training started.
Beckham batted .179 with one homer and four RBIs in 23 games before going on the DL with a groin strain in April. After undergoing core surgery, he missed two months.
”I don’t want to think about what was going on before the injury,” Beckham said Monday. ”I’m here now
Troy Niklas Color Rush Jersey , I’m healthy and I’m ready to play some ball.”
Beckham said he had been playing with pain long before he was traded from Tampa Bay to Baltimore last July.
”It’s something I battled through for years,” he said. ”You have to play through injuries sometimes. That’s the situation I was in at Tampa.”
With Beckham back, the Orioles started all their front-line players for the first time Monday night against Seattle. The lineup included Jonathan Schoop

Baltimore began the day with a 23-53 record.
”It’s been a long (76) games, but I’m glad to see everybody back

Beckham returns after playing in seven minor league games on his rehabilitation assignment.
”Our record doesn’t look good right now, but we have a really good ball club

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard George Hill will miss Game 4 at Indiana because of back spasms. He will be replaced in the starting lineup by veteran Jose Calderon.
Coach Tyronn Lue made the announcement Sunday about 90 minutes before tip-off and says he’s not sure if Hill would be ready for Game 5 on Wednesday.
Hill aggravated his back in Friday’s 92-90 loss and was struggling to move over the past two days. The three-time defending Eastern Conference champs trail the Pacers 2-1.
Calderon scored five points in 13½ minutes in the Cavs’ Game 2 victory but did not play in Game 3.
Tristan Thompson also should see more playing time Sunday after logging 1 minute, 59 seconds in the first three games.
