Skye Bolt leads Arizona Fall League in slugging

Posted Oct 24, 2018
Leading the way at the plate is outfielder Skye Bolt. He’s hitting for an impressive average and drawing his share of walks, but my attention is drawn to his power so far. His .750 slugging percentage leads the entire AFL and so does his .417 isolated slugging, thanks to a pair of homers and a pair of triples. He’s needed only 28 plate appearances to rack up 18 total bases. (Athletics Nation)
