Mixed results for A's prospects in Fall Stars Game

BOX SCORE

Franklin Barreto stepped into the batter's box Saturday night to start off the 11th annual Fall Stars Game against Rays prospect Brent Honeywell. Three pitches later, Barreto walked back to the dugout.

Honeywell spotted two perfect fastballs -- one on the inside corner and the next on the outside -- before snapping off a big 12-6 curveball, forcing Barreto to chase a ball in the dirt and whiff to start the game. Barreto's day didn't get much better in his East squad's 12-3 loss to the West.

In his second and last at-bat of the day, Barreto grounded out to third base, finishing hitless in the game.
