Neal allowed two runs on four hits and a walk with five strikeouts over six innings in a no-decision Tuesday against the Angels.
Neal had one of his best starts of the year, lasting six innings for just the second time and recording his second quality start in six chances in the process. The five strikeouts marked a career high for the 27-year-old rookie. It's unclear if Ross Detwiler, Tuesday's original scheduled starter, will return to the rotation -- he was forced into action out of the bullpen in Monday's game, opening the door for Neal to start Tuesday.
