Nolan Reimold is in left field today and Gerardo Parra is in right as the Orioles conclude their three-game series in Oakland.

The Orioles rank fourth in the American League with a .568 (21-16) winning percentage in day games this season. They're 20-15 in the last game of a series.

Center fielder Adam Jones ranks seventh in the majors and fifth in the American League with a .363 (45-for-124) average in day games.

Left-hander Wei-Yin Chen has surrendered two runs or fewer in five of his last six road starts since May 3, going 2-1 with a 2.84 ERA.

The Orioles are 35-5 when Caleb Joseph has at least one RBI and 17-2 when he records two or more.

Coco Crisp was scratched from the Athletics' lineup today. Mark Canha moved to left field and Ike Davis was inserted at first base.
