Former University of South Carolina infielder Kevin Melillo has reached the major leagues

Former University of South Carolina infielder Kevin Melillo has reached the major leagues.

The Oakland Athletics today called up Melillo to replace outfielder Milton Bradley, whom the team removed from its roster by designating him for assignment.

Melillo had been playing for the Athletics’ Class AAA affiliate in Sacramento, Calif. He was hitting .267 with seven homers and 40 runs batted in.

We here at the LOHD wish him success!
