OAKLAND -- Barry Zito says the fans deserve it. The A's say Zito deserves it.
It will come Saturday in the Coliseum -- one last start for Zito in an A's uniform. Opposing the A's left-hander will be the Giants' Tim Hudson, who along with Zito and Mark Mulder was part of the A's "Big Three'' from 2000-04.And, yes, Mulder will be in the house."Huddy's family is going to be out there, so it's going to be awesome,'' Zito said, adding of Mulder "he's going to come out for it, and his family is coming out.''It is going down as the final start in the career of the 37-year-old Zito, although he said he hasn't 100 percent closed the door on pitching in 2016.
