Reddick is out of the lineup Friday against the Astros. A long series of opposing right-handed pitchers kept Reddick in the lineup for 10 of the team's last 11 games, but he'll sit Friday in favor of Cody Ross in right field with lefty Dallas Keuchel on the bump for Houston. The A's figure to shield Reddick, a career .229/.290/.398 hitter against left-handed pitching, from southpaws as much as possible.
