Fairchild started in center field and went 2-for-2 with a stolen base in Saturday's 3-1 win over Detroit. He was also hit by a pitch. Fairchild had to move mid-game, from center to right field, when Chase DeLauter (ribs) was removed. Later, Angel Martinez (foot) made an early exit. He's been used sparingly since his contract was selected from Triple-A Columbus at the end of May, but pending the statuses of DeLauter and Martinez, Fairchild could see an uptick in playing time.

Stuart Fairchild: Breaking News
Fills in for injured teammate
Fairchild entered Saturday's game for the injured Angel Martinez (foot) and went 0-for-2 in a 9-1 loss to Boston. Fairchild saw his first game action in the majors since being called up Friday after Steven Kwan was placed on the bereavement list. Martinez, who was removed after four innings, underwent an MRI following the game and more should be learned about his status Sunday. If Martinez is forced to miss time, the right-handed hitting Fairchild or the lefty-hitting Petey Halpin are the expected fill-ins.
Joining Cleveland roster
The Guardians selected Fairchild's contract from Triple-A Columbus on Friday, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports. With Steven Kwan going on the bereavement list, it opened a spot in the outfield for Fairchild, who has been swinging a hot bat at the Triple-A level this season. He's slashing .289/.417/.479 with five homers, 15 RBI, 31 runs scored, nine stolen bases and a 26:32 BB:K across 176 trips to the plate. Fairchild figures to see most of his chances against left-handed pitching with Cleveland.
