Orioles notes: Mark Trumbo will make his postseason debut Tuesday

Orioles outfielder Mark Trumbo just completed the best regular season of his career, leading the major leagues with 47 homers. And now, after playing parts of seven big-league seasons with four different clubs, Trumbo is in the postseason for the first time in his career.

Trumbo said he's waited a long time for the type of playoff-clinching celebration the Orioles enjoyed in New York on Sunday following their 5-2 win over the Yankees.

"In previous years playing, I've watched quite a few teams celebrate, and you really hope at some point — or at least I did — that you'd be a part of something like this," Trumbo said with a smile.
