BALTIMORE—The Orioles on Sunday activated infielders Jordan Westburg and Ramón Urias from the 10-day injured list. Westburg fractured his right hand on July 31st and Urías sprained his right ankle on August 31st.

Each played three rehab games for Triple-A Norfolk.

The Orioles, who can clinch a playoff berth with a win over the Detroit Tigers and a loss by the Seattle Mariners, play their final home game of the regular season on Sunday. They close the season with series at New York and Minnesota.

The Orioles optioned outfielder Daniel Johnson and infielder Liván Soto to Norfolk.
