          The Orioles acquired Bourn from the Arizona Diamondbacks on Aug. 31 of last year. The 34-year-old slashed .283/.358/.435 with 13 hits and eight RBIs in 24 games (46 at-bats) with Baltimore. In 113 combined games with the O's and D-Backs, Bourn posted a .264/.314/.371 slash line with 99 hits and 38 RBIs.

          Bourn is a two-time Gold Glove winner (2009, 2010) and two-time All-Star (2010, 2012).

          An 11-year veteran, Bourn has been on six different teams during his career. Prior to his time with the Orioles and Diamondbacks, Bourn had stints with the Cleveland Indians, Houston Astros and Philadelphia Phillies, and two stints with the Atlanta Braves.
