The A’s are calling up outfielder Denzel Clarke, ESPN’s Jeff Passan reported late Thursday night. Clarke arrives as the A’s are in the midst of a nine-game losing streak. Their No. 8 prospect brings both upside and energy as they look to turn things around. Clarke was hitting .286/.436/.419 at Triple-A, bouncing back from an April stint on the injured list. He also offers a significant defensive upgrade in center field. The 25-year-old was drafted in the fourth round in 2021, signing for $400,000 out of Cal State Northridge. A’s third baseman Gio Urshela was placed on the injured list with a strained hamstring.
