--SS Juan Castro was held out of Sunday's game, but not necessarily as a result of the strained groin he suffered Saturday night. Castro, 36, will be given off on day games following night games, according to manager Dave Trembley.
--LF Luke Scott was not in Sunday's starting lineup as a regular day off, manager Dave Trembley said. Scott, who has been battling minor injuries to his foot and heel, has improved significantly over the past week.
--RHP Chris Ray threw an inning in Gulf Coast League game at the club's minor league complex in Sarasota, Fla., on Friday. He will throw another inning Tuesday as he rehabilitates his surgically-repaired elbow.
BY THE NUMBERS: .314 -- The Orioles winning percentage in 35 day games. The team has struggled to an 11-24 record when the sun is out.
QUOTE TO NOTE: "He pitched well enough tonight to get us where we needed to go. He's not perfect and we're not perfect. Obviously they miss a couple guys in their lineup that might make a difference for them, but that's not to take away from what kind of game he threw." -- Orioles manager Dave Trembley on Daniel Cabrera's six-inning performance against Texas in a 9-0 win Aug. 9.
