Orioles' Samuel Basallo: Idle against lefty

Basallo is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

The Orioles have been giving the left-handed-hitting Basallo more exposure to same-handed pitching in recent weeks, but he'll hit the bench Wednesday while southpaw Noah Schultz starts for the White Sox. With Basallo taking a seat, Adley Rutschman will handle catching duties and Pete Alonso will serve as the Orioles' designated hitter.
