Kjerstad went 3-for-4 with a hit-by-pitch and a run scored in Saturday's 6-4 extra-inning loss to the Tigers.
Over his first five games back from a six-week absence due to a concussion, he went a modest 2-for-12 with two strikeouts. Kjerstad was able to break out Saturday, but it's unlikely to lead to a significant uptick in playing time as the Orioles slowly get healthier. He's slashing .271/.374/.400 with three home runs, 12 RBI, seven runs scored and a stolen base over 99 plate appearances while mainly playing against right-handed pitchers this season.
