The Oakland Athletics have made a roster move, selecting a new player from their Triple-A affiliate. Ben Bowden, a left-handed pitcher, was chosen from Las Vegas. This change occurred before a game against the Detroit Tigers.

The selection of Bowden is part of a larger roster adjustment, as the team also demoted a player. RHP Luis Morales was sent down as part of this move. Further details about the Athletics' roster moves can be found in the Galveston County Daily News.
