Heading to Oakland Harrison and Yan Gomes were acquired by the Athletics from the Nationals on Friday for an undisclosed return, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports. Impact Harrison played second base, third base and all three outfield spots for Washington this season, and he figures to fill a similar utility role in Oakland with Chad Pinder (hamstring) sidelined. Harrison re-signed with the Nationals on a $1 million deal during the offseason and has enjoyed a strong season, slashing .294/.366/.434 with six homers, 23 doubles, 38 RBI, 39 runs and five stolen bases in 90 games.
