Happy Earth Day, Athletics Nation!
Former A’s pitcher Barry Zito is in town for tonight’s game. The lefty was named to three All-Star teams during his first stint with Oakland, which spanned seven seasons. He won the American League Cy Young in 2002 by going 23-5 with a 2.75 ERA, leading the A’s to the playoffs for their third consecutive season. Including his 2015 return, Zito went 102-63 with a 3.58 ERA over 225 games (224 starts) with Oakland.
Now, Zito is teaming up with Energy Upgrade California to promote responsible energy management.
