Athletics' Tyler Soderstrom: Clubs 13th homer
Soderstrom went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 5-0 win over the Angels.
After Shea Langeliers blasted a three-run homer, Soderstrom followed suit with a solo shot of his own to give the Athletics an early 4-0 lead in the first frame. The left fielder has been on a lengthy tear, hitting .318/.437/.659 with eight homers, 17 RBI and 14 runs over his past 25 games. This stretch has helped offset a cold start to the campaign, with the 24-year-old's overall numbers sitting at .235/.332/.470 with 13 homers, 40 RBI, 36 runs and a stolen base across 72 contests.

Athletics' Shea Langeliers: Belts 19th homer
Langeliers went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in a 5-0 win against the Angels on Thursday.
Langeliers had the key hit in a big first inning for the A's, clobbering a 430-foot homer to center field to account for the first three runs of the contest. The blossoming star extended his on-base streak to 11 games with the long ball, and during that stretch he's clubbed three homers and driven in six runs. On the season, Langeliers' 19 homers rank second among catchers behind Hunter Goodman (21), and Langeliers' .870 OPS trails only Drake Baldwin among catchers with at least 200 plate appearances.

Athletics' Gage Jump: Enjoys best start of career
Jump (3-1) earned the win over the Angels on Thursday, allowing one hit and issuing three walks while striking out seven batters over seven scoreless innings.
The Angels simply couldn't get to Jump, managing just one hit -- an Oswald Peraza double -- against him. The rookie left-hander established a career-best mark with seven punchouts and tossed his second scoreless start over his past three outings. Jump has yet to give up a homer through five appearances this season, and he's completed at least six innings in three of those starts. The 24-year-old appears to be in the big-league rotation to stay, as he's registered an excellent 2.37 ERA and 0.99 WHIP along with a 26:9 K:BB through his first 30.1 major-league frames.

Athletics' Henry Bolte: Swats second homer
Bolte went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 12-4 loss to the Pirates.
After seeing a seven-game hitting streak snapped Tuesday while striking out three times, Bolte went deep in the seventh inning Wednesday for his second homer of June. The outfielder is hitting .310 with an .801 OPS, two homers, eight RBI, 11 runs scored, five doubles and six stolen bases over 32 contests this year. Bolte hit for modest power in the minors, aside from earlier this year when he clubbed 12 homers in 37 games for Triple-A Las Vegas prior to his call-up to the majors. His contact skills have been better than expected early in his big-league career, though he still has a 29.2 percent strikeout rate.

Athletics' Zack Gelof: Keeps streak alive with homer
Gelof went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 12-4 loss to the Pirates.
Gelof's hitting streak was on the line, but he extended it to 21 games with a ninth-inning solo shot. He's now batting 30-for-82 (.366) with five homers and 12 RBI during the streak. The infielder is hitting .286 with an .843 OPS, 11 homers, 29 RBI, 35 runs scored and eight stolen bases over 58 contests this season.

Athletics' Aaron Civale: Roughed up in return
Civale (5-3) allowed six runs on nine hits and two walks while striking out two over three-plus innings to take the loss versus the Pirates on Wednesday.
Civale missed about three weeks due to right shoulder tendinitis before rejoining the rotation Wednesday. He threw 46 of 71 pitches for strikes in his return, but his early exit was likely performance related rather than a workload consideration. He's allowed 18 runs over 12 innings across his last three starts in the majors. Civale now has a 4.91 ERA, 1.59 WHIP and 41:19 K:BB over 58.2 innings through 12 outings this season. His next start is projected to be on the road in San Francisco, which is about as favorable a matchup as a struggling pitcher can ask for, though Civale's recent performance means he'll still carry some risk.

Athletics' Aaron Civale: Activated ahead of start
The Athletics reinstated Civale (shoulder) from the injured list ahead of his start Wednesday against the Pirates.
Civale was brilliant during his rehab outing at Triple-A Las Vegas on Thursday, striking out seven batters without allowing a man to reach base in 4.1 innings. He now has the green light to rejoin the Athletics' rotation, though he will be making his return against a Pirates offense that's posted a .764 OPS since the beginning of June. The 31-year-old righty is also likely to have his workload limited Wednesday after tossing just 56 pitches during his appearance in the minors. Luis Morales was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Athletics' Luis Morales: Demoted to Triple-A
The Athletics optioned Morales to Triple-A Las Vegas on Wednesday.
Morales will head back to Triple-A after just being recalled to the big-league club Monday. The 23-year-old made no appearances in his brief two-day stint in the majors. The Athletics activated Aaron Civale (shoulder) from the injured list to start Wednesday against the Pirates.

Athletics' Carlos Cortes: Resting up Wednesday
Cortes isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates.
Cortes will get a chance to regroup Wednesday after going 0-for-8 with five strikeouts across the first two games of the series. While he sits, Lawrence Butler will start in right field and Shea Langeliers will serve as the DH, putting Jonah Heim behind the plate.

Athletics' Zack Gelof: Perfect at plate Tuesday
Gelof went 3-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk, two total runs, two total RBI and a stolen base in a loss to the Pirates on Tuesday.
Pittsburgh was unable to retire Gelof, who collected three of the Athletics' eight hits. He knocked an infield single in the first inning that resulted in three runs, though Gelof was credited with just one RBI, as two of the scores were the result of an error. Gelof added a solo homer in the sixth, but his performance wasn't enough to prevent the Pirates from pulling out the win via a late comeback. Gelof has somewhat quietly put together a 20-game hitting streak, during which he's batting a scorching .372 with four homers, six doubles, 13 runs, 11 RBI and two stolen bases.

Athletics' Jack Perkins: Fades late in no-decision
Perkins allowed three runs on six hits and two walks while striking out six batters over five-plus innings in a no-decision against Pittsburgh on Tuesday.
The A's staked Perkins to a 4-0 lead in the first inning, and he limited the Pirates to just one run through five frames. However, the right-hander began the sixth by serving up a solo homer to Bryan Reynolds followed by a Ryan O'Hearn double before being pulled. O'Hearn eventually came around to score, and a late Pittsburgh comeback removed Perkins from factoring into the decision. The plus side is that Perkins completed five frames for the first time this season, and he reached 85 pitches for the second straight start. It hasn't been the smoothest of transitions for Perkins after he worked out of the bullpen until the beginning of June, but Tuesday's outing was at least a step in the right direction.

Athletics' Brooks Kriske: Begins throwing progression
Kriske (shoulder) began a throwing progression Thursday, MLB.com reports.
Kriske landed on the injured list May 13 due to a right shoulder impingement and had previously been shut down from throwing. Beginning a throwing progression is a step in the right direction, though it's just the first of many as the right-hander works his way back to full health. Having been transferred to the 60-day injured list June 2, Kriske isn't eligible to be activated until after the All-Star break.

Athletics' Lawrence Butler: Stays hot in Monday's win
Butler went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and two runs scored in Monday's win over the Pirates.
Butler extended the Athletics' lead with an RBI double off the wall in left-center field in the seventh inning, giving him his third multi-hit effort over the past four games. The 25-year-old has been much better at the plate of late, going 10-for-24 (.417) with a homer, two doubles, four RBI and five runs across his past eight appearances. With Brent Rooker (knee) sidelined, there's more of an opportunity for Carlos Cortes to shift to designated hitter and Butler to play right field against right-handed pitching, as was the case Monday. Overall, Butler is hitting .193 with a .565 OPS, four homers, five doubles, 18 RBI, 22 runs and four stolen bases across 196 plate appearances this season.
