Holliday started this season with the Norfolk Tides. In 10 games with the Triple-A affiliate, Holliday hit .333/.482/.595 and had nine RBIs and two home runs. Holliday spent the season as a second baseman so far, though he was drafted as a shortstop out of Stillwater High School in Oklahoma.
The Orioles beat the Red Sox 7-1 on Tuesday at Fenway Park to kick off their three-game series in Boston. The Orioles, who now hold a 6-4 record so far this season, will return to Baltimore next on Friday for a six-game homestand.
