Oakland Athletics take a hit on the injury front as rookie infielder Joshua Kuroda-Grauer, who was crushing it with a .400 average in his first 16 games, is sidelined after emergency groin surgery from a foul ball — he even got a hit before being removed.

The A’s are turning to Triple-A call-ups Hayden Juenger and Max Muncy to fill the void — a tough blow for both players and the team’s momentum.
