The Oakland Athletics will place outfielder Seth Brown on the 10-day injured list due to an oblique strain, according to a report by MLB.com’s Martin Gallegos. Brown was injured on a check swing in Saturday’s loss to the Rays. Per the report, the A’s will recall infielder Kevin Smith from Las Vegas to take Brown’s spot on the active roster.
Hearing Kevin Smith is en route to join the A's in Baltimore.
