Skye’s the limit! A’s call up outfield prospect Skye Bolt

Posted May 4, 2019
Mike Bolt knew he was setting the bar pretty high when he decided to name his son “Skye.” “He had a lot of pressure right out of the gate,” Mike Bolt said with a laugh. Now, Skye is very much at the limit. The Oakland Athletics called up the switch-hitting outfielder on Thursday, hoping he can provide a jolt to a lineup in need of one. Oakland sits last in the AL West. (Associated Press)
