BALTIMORE — Athletics shortstop Jacob Wilson left Sunday's game at Baltimore in the bottom of the fifth inning with a left shoulder injury.
Wilson went diving after Gunnar Henderson's ground ball up the middle, and after he was checked out briefly, he walked off the field and was replaced by Darell Hernaiz.
Manager Mark Kotsay described the injury as a sprain and said the team would have more imaging Monday.
Wilson, an All-Star last year, is batting .292 with three home runs and 19 RBIs this season.
