Mark Leiter Jr. to Undergo Season-Ending Hip Surgery

The Athletics have announced that Mark Leiter Jr. will undergo season-ending surgery to repair a right hip impingement. This procedure follows an injury report that also confirmed Shea Langeliers will require surgery for a torn meniscus. Leiter's absence is a significant blow to the Athletics' pitching depth as the team moves forward with its roster adjustments for the remainder of the season.
