ANTHONY SANTANDER NEWS

Adds first steal Santander went 0-for-3 with a hit by pitch and a stolen base in Thursday's 6-4 loss to Detroit.

Impact After reaching on a fielder's choice in the first inning, the 26-year-old made a dart to second base. Baltimore likely would have run him down, but Santander's foray into baserunning provided enough distraction to let Cedric Mullins steal home. Through parts of five major-league seasons, Santander has just three stolen bases in seven attempts, so he should not be considered a speed threat by any means. He's now slashing .250/.298/.433 through 293 plate appearances this year.
