Oakland’s Rickey Henderson was placed on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to April 12 before the Athletics’ game against the Seattle Mariners Sunday.

Henderson, two steals away from breaking Lou Brock’s all-time stolen base record, has sat out nine games because of a strained left calf muscle. He is eligible to come off the disabled list Saturday.

The Athletics recalled outfielder Brad Komminsk from triple-A Tacoma. Komminsk started Sunday in right field.
