Athletics' Joshua Kuroda-Grauer Resting After Suffering Ruptured Testicle

The rookie infielder will miss time after surgery for a ruptured testicle, and the Athletics recalled two players in a corresponding move.

  • On Tuesday, the Athletics placed infielder Joshua Kuroda-Grauer on the 10-day injured list after he underwent emergency surgery for a ruptured testicle sustained during Monday's game.
  • Before his departure, the 23-year-old Kuroda-Grauer had impressed in his rookie campaign, batting.417 with eight multi-hit games in 16 appearances and hitting his first major league home run Monday.
  • While fouling off a pitch in the fifth inning, the infielder suffered a ruptured testicle; despite the pain, Kuroda-Grauer remained in the game to line a single to center field.
  • In a corresponding roster move, the Athletics recalled third baseman Max Muncy and right-hander Hayden Juenger from Triple-A Las Vegas, while placing pitcher Mark Leiter Jr. on the 15-day injured list retroactive to July 19.
  • Third baseman Tommy White will start in place of the injured rookie as the club looks to push into the postseason, currently trailing the Seattle Mariners by 7.5 games in the AL West.
