Former A’s outfielder Jeremy Giambi died Wednesday at the age of 47 at his parents' home in Southern California, his agent said.

Giambi spent two-and-a-half seasons playing for the A’s from 2000-02. He is the younger brother of A’s great Jason Giambi, who won the 2000 American League MVP when the two were teammates.

Over his six-year MLB career, Giambi batted .263/.377/.430 with 52 home runs and 209 RBI.

He had his best season as a big leaguer in 2001 with Oakland, hitting .283/.391/.450 with 26 doubles and 12 home runs in 124 games.
