Leo De Vries went 1-for-2 with two stolen bases on Sunday in the All-Star Futures Game at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia.
De Vries lead off the contest with a line-drive single to left field and immediately swiped second and third base before crossing the plate on a ground out from Franklin Arias. He struck out against lefty Cam Caminiti in his next at-bat to end the third before being lifted for a defensive replacement in the fourth. The 19-year-old shortstop was the centerpiece of the Mason Miller trade with the Padres last year and looks like a potential X-factor for the Athletics homegrown core alongside the likes of Nick Kurtz, Brent Rooker, Jacob Wilson, Lawrence Butler and Tyler Soderstrom.
