Bud Norris faces the rookie Nick Martinez.

The Orioles hope to maintain their winning streak and stay in second place in the AL East. Meanwhile, the Rangers hope to get back above .500 in a season that has to be considered a disappointment so far. Nick Martinez, who's spent much of the season as a reliever, returned to the rotation recently. In his last start against Minnesota, he gave up four earned runs in 5.2 innings of work. That was at Target Field; hopefully the Orioles can make him work just as hard tonight in Texas.
