Orioles scratch Mora

---

Baltimore, MD (Sports Network) - The Baltimore Orioles were without the services of third baseman Melvin Mora for Tuesday's series opener against Boston after he took a ball off his shoulder during warmups.

His was replaced in the lineup by Aubrey Huff.

The Orioles were also without catcher Ramon Hernandez for a third consecutive game due to a sore left wrist.

In 38 games this season, Mora is hitting .252 with five home runs and 21 RBI.
