Pitcher of the Day: RHP Zach Neal, Midland (Double-A/OAK) - 9 IP, 2 H, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3 K
Midland right-hander Zach Neal faced one batter over the minimum in pitching a complete game shutout against Frisco. Neal's perfect game bid was broken up in the 7th inning, but the 24-year old wasn't fazed and gave his team the stellar performance it needed to edge out a 1-0 victory.
Neal is playing his first season in the Athletics' organization and although he has had an up-and-down 2013, he has really turned it on his last three starts. In 21.1 innings Neal has given up just two earned runs while putting up an outstanding WHIP of 0.57.
