Athletics' Mitch Moreland: Sitting in NL park

Moreland is out of the lineup Tuesday at San Diego, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Moreland was not in the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Mariners, and he's on the bench again Tuesday since the A's are without the designated hitter in an NL park. It's only a two-game series in San Diego, so the veteran slugger should be back in the lineup for the upcoming four-game set against the Angels, which begins Thursday.
