DeLuca will start in right field and bat leadoff in Sunday's game against the Orioles.
DeLuca will crack the lineup for the fourth game in a row -- all against right-handed starting pitchers -- and will occupy the leadoff spot for the second straight contest after going 1-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Saturday's 7-5 loss. With Richie Palacios (knee) on the injured list and with Jose Siri producing a weak .605 OPS since the All-Star break, DeLuca looks to have moved into a near-everyday role in the Tampa Bay outfield after previously operating as a short-side platoon player.
