Athletics pitcher Drew Pomeranz turned in a scoreless start Saturday against the Phillies.
Pomeranz allowed one hit over five scoreless innings. He struck out six and walked two during the outing. Pomeranz was masterful, giving up his only hit in the first inning. He actually loaded the bases during the frame after walking and hitting a batter with a pitch, but was able to get out of it. Pomeranz would settle in at that point, tossing three perfect innings. He allowed a walk in the fifth, but got out of it without giving up any runs. Pomeranz was pulled after throwing 86 pitches.
Pomeranz earned the no-decision for his performance. He’ll take on the Rangers if he gets another start.
