CLEVELAND — Orioles shortstop J.J. Hardy, out nearly three months with a broken right wrist, has been activated from the 60-day disabled list.
Hardy was hit by a pitch on June 18 and placed on the DL the following day. He is batting .211 with three home runs and 21 RBIs in 64 games and recently completed a minor league rehab assignment.
Tim Beckham, acquired from Tampa Bay at the trade deadline, has taken over the shortstop duties.
