Zito back in the groove against the Mariners…

April 9, 2006 | Baseball, General | By: Mark VandeWettering

After a shaky opening day performance, Barry Zito came back and pitched six innings, giving up only one hit against the Mariners. Relievers Calero, Kennedy and Street shut the Mariners down the rest of the way, giving up no further hits and giving the Athletics their first shutout of the season. This follows a 2 hit performance yesterday, marking the lowest total for hits in two consecutive games in Mariner’s history.

They will finish up the four game series today. First pitch today at 1:05 PST.
