Soderstrom (wrist) was activated from the injured list and is starting at first base and batting seventh Saturday against the White Sox.

Soderstrom missed the last two months with a bone bruise on his left wrist. Prior to being activated, he went 9-for-20 with three homers, eight RBI, six runs scored and four walks during a rehab assignment for Triple-A Las Vegas. Soderstrom didn't get the call-up this season until May and got off to a slow start, but he hit six homers with a 19.8 percent strikeout rate in his 100 at-bats prior to hitting the IL, and Oakland will likely give him steady playing time against right-handed pitching down the stretch.
