Oakland Athletics second baseman Zack Gelof has been diagnosed with a left oblique strain and is expected to miss significant time. The injury occurred on Tuesday, as soreness led the team to scratch him from the lineup for testing. Gelof, who was the A’s best player as a rookie last season, had a slow start to 2023, batting .196/.260/.337 with 33 strikeouts in 101 plate appearances.
Zack Gelof’s two-run homer off Victor González in the ninth inning propelled the Oakland Athletics to a 2-0 victory over the New York Yankees on Monday at Yankee Stadium. The win snapped an eight-game losing streak for the Athletics in the Bronx and was also notable for the ejection of Yankees manager Aaron Boone after just five pitches.

Yankees starter Carlos Rodon also pitched seven innings, allowing only one hit. The game was marked by the bizarre early ejection of Yankees manager Aaron Boone by plate umpire Hunter Wendelstedt.
