The Athletics placed outfielder Tyler Soderstrom on the 10-day injured list on Sunday with a left hip impingement. The 24-year-old is batting .245 with 19 homers and 56 RBIs in 109 games this season. He set career highs last year with 25 homers, 93 RBIs and a .276 average across 158 games.

Soderstrom's absence adds to Oakland's injury woes, as the team is already without first baseman Nick Kurtz (right thumb) and catcher Shea Langeliers (season-ending knee surgery). Kurtz could miss the remainder of the year.

On Sunday, the A's claimed left-hander Joe Rock off waivers from the Chicago White Sox and optioned him to Triple-A Las Vegas. Infielder Darell Hernaiz was recalled from the minors, while right-hander Justin Sterner was transferred to the 60-day IL.
