Andujar went 2-for-3 with a double and a walk in a loss to the Padres on Monday.
Andujar authored one of two multi-hit efforts on the night for the otherwise anemic Athletics offense, pushing his season slash line to a stellar .321/.328/.500 in the process. The veteran has back-to-back two-hit efforts, and he now boasts six multi-hit tallies over his first 14 games of the season.
Andujar is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Blue Jays.
Saturday marks Andujar's first day off since May 25 against the Astros. Andujar was off to a hot start at the plate since returning from the injured list May 24, but the 29-year-old has failed to reach base over his last three games, going 0-for-11 with four strikeouts. With Toronto sending right-hander Kevin Gausman to the mound Saturday, Oakland will start Daz Cameron and Seth Brown in left and right field, respectively.

Athletics' Miguel Andujar: Plates pair in multi-hit effort
Rotowire
Andujar went 2-for-3 with a double and two RBI in a loss to the Rays on Wednesday.
Andujar's torrid start after a delayed season debut continued in the one-run loss, with the multi-hit effort serving as his second in his first four starts. The veteran has already knocked in seven runs, carrying over the momentum he'd generated during a stellar spring training before suffering a knee injury.
Athletics' Miguel Andujar: Swats first homer of season
Rotowire
Andujar went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Rays.
The 29-year-old accounted for all the offense in the game when he took Zack Littell deep in the sixth inning. It was Andujar's first homer of the season, and he appears to be getting a chance to lock down the starting role in left field -- he's started three of four games since being activated from the injured list, going 4-for-12 with five RBI.
Athletics' Miguel Andujar: Three hits in season debut
Rotowire
Andujar went 3-for-4 with two RBI in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Astros.
Andujar had RBI singles in the first and seventh innings in his season debut. The outfielder missed nearly two months with a torn meniscus in his right knee and hit .389 (7-for-18) during a five-game rehab stint at Triple-A Las Vegas. Andujar will join a suddenly crowded Oakland outfield, with his best chance for playing time coming in left field in competition with fellow right-handed hitters Brent Rooker and Daz Cameron.
