Baltimore picked up minor-league catcher Alex Jackson and immediately added him to their 40-man roster. In exchange, the Orioles will give New York international bonus pool space, plus either a player to be named or cash considerations.

However, with Gary Sanchez heading to the IL with a right knee sprain, the Orioles have announced they will be selecting the contract of Jackson, and he will wear No. 70 for the big league team. To make room, Baltimore transferred Jorge Mateo to the 60-day IL.

The Orioles traded for the Yankees’ Alex Jackson and placed Gary Sánchez on the injured list as their catcher injuries continue to pile up.

Jackson Holliday had four hits, including the third-inning homer off Grant Holmes (4-8) that barely cleared the brick wall in right field.

Trevor Rogers pitched 6 2/3 scoreless innings, and Jackson Holliday hit a two-run homer and went 4-for-4 in the Orioles’ 2-1 win in Atlanta.
