Trumbo makes long-awaited season debut

ANAHEIM -- Mark Trumbo rejoined the Orioles on Tuesday, as expected, with the designated hitter activated from the disabled list pregame as part of several roster moves.

The O's also placed Luis Sardinas on the DL with a lower back injury and recalled Engelb Vielma from Triple-A Norfolk. They optioned outfielder Joey Rickard after Sunday's game to clear a second roster spot.
