Bride ready to contribute with A’s after lengthy stint on injured list

OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA – JUNE 19: Oakland Athletics’ Jonah Bride throws to first base for an out on a hit by Kansas City Royals’ Andrew Benintendi in the first inning at the Coliseum in Oakland, Calif., on Sunday, June 19, 2022. After being out of action for close to a month with a strained right shoulder, A’s infielder Jonah Bride has been reinstated from the injured list and A’s manager Mark Kotsay is ready to use him all over the diamond.

Bride has started at third and second base this season for the A’s but also played first base in the minor leagues. While Bride hasn’t logged in any games in the outfield at the professional level, Kotsay said that if the opportunity arises, Bride could play there. Bride, 26, was placed on the injured list after suffering a nasty collision with Chad Pinder when they both tried to field a ball in Kansas City against the Royals on June 26. Bride said that his swing progression wasn’t causing him trouble, but throwing was “keeping me back a little bit.”

“They’ve been swinging the bat well, so that’s encouraging,” Bride said. “It’s a good vibe in the clubhouse so I want to help contribute to that.”Seth Brown was placed on the paternity list and is on his way to meet with his wife, Brittaney, for the birth of their child.
