One hitter returns from the injured list just in time to fill in for another who got hurt this week.
The Oakland A’s activated outfielder Stephen Piscotty from the 10-day IL on Tuesday, the team announced.
In a corresponding move, infielder Jonah Bride was placed on the 10-day IL due to a strained right shoulder, retroactive to June 27.
Piscotty missed nearly two months to a Grade 1 calf strain. The injury forced him to leave the game early on May 6, and two days later he went on the IL.
