DETROIT (AP) - Delmon Young and Victor Martinez are in the starting lineup for the Detroit Tigers, and Adrian Beltre is set to start for the Texas Rangers in Game 4 of the AL championship series Wednesday.

The banged-up Young missed Games 1 and 3 of this series, and Martinez hurt his ribcage while hitting a home run Tuesday night, although he stayed in the game. Beltre fouled a pitch off his left knee in Game 3 but also remained in the game.

Young, Detroit’s left fielder, is batting fifth. Martinez will hit cleanup at designated hitter.

Beltre is set to hit fifth and play third base for Texas.
