## Resource

Brent Rooker’s season is over after surgery for a torn knee cartilage, leaving the Athletics without their consistent power bat—hitting .200 with 10 homers and 29 RBIs before his injury. Manager Mark Kotsay admits it’s a massive loss, as no one can easily replace Rooker’s middle-order production. Compounding the blow, three other starters are sidelined with injuries, making this a brutal stretch for a team already struggling to stay afloat.
