LAS VEGAS (AP) — Athletics third baseman Max Muncy has come off the injured list after missing about six weeks with a fracture in his left hand.

The Athletics announced before their game against Milwaukee in Las Vegas on Monday night that they had reinstated Muncy. They optioned infielder Darell Hernaiz to Triple-A Las Vegas.

Muncy was recovering from a fractured fifth metacarpal. He last played on April 25.
