The Oakland A’s lost their series in Pittsburgh this weekend, but it was still a positive experience for their newest player.
The A’s have a lot of impact talent in Triple-A, and the first of those prospects came up to the majors on Friday in the form of outfielder Skye Bolt. He was shredding the ball in Las Vegas, with six homers in 22 games, and an injury to Mark Canha opened up a spot in the majors.
Bolt got into all three games in Pittsburgh, though he never got to start. He made his MLB debut on Friday, as a pinch-hitter.
