Back in action Sunday Roberts (groin) is batting seventh as the designated hitter Sunday against the Cubs, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports. Impact The outfielder wasn't initially included in the lineup for Sunday's series finale, but he was able to convince manager Will Venable to insert him at designated hitter. Robert is in the midst of a nine-game hit streak and has gone 12-for-32 (.375 average) with two homers, four steals, nine RBI and 10 runs during that span.
