Manny Machado hit his second home run of the season in a win over the Indians on Sunday. Machado led off the fifth innning with a solo blast against Indians starter Trevor Bauer, his only hit in two official at-bats on the day. He also walked twice. It's been slow out of the gate for the third baseman, as he's still hitting just .235/.290/.318, but he's got a modest eight-game hitting streak as he continues to find his timing at the plate.

Manny Machado is back in the Orioles' lineup Sunday.

Machado was forced to leave Thursday's game due to stiffness in his right groin and sat out Friday's contest as a precautionary measure.

Orioles manager Buck Showalter said that he removed Manny Machado (groin) from Thursday's game as a precaution. Showalter thinks Machado might have tweaked his right groin on a slide and he didn't like the third baseman's running and body language.

Machado is not in the Orioles' starting lineup for Game 1 of Thursday's doubleheader with the Pirates, but he should be in there for Game 2.

He was 8-for-12 (.667) with four doubles, a triple, and one stolen base on his three-game rehab assignment at High-A Frederick.
