Walbert Urena blanks Athletics for six innings Monday
by David Leisering | Angels Correspondent | Tue, May 19th 12:44am EDT
Walbert Urena tossed six scoreless innings on Monday, allowing only four hits while walking two and striking out four. He did not factor in the decision.
Fantasy Impact:
Urena went toe-to-toe with Athletics' starter, J.T. Ginn, who carried a no-hitter into the ninth inning on Monday. Urena allowed three singles and a double, but allowed just one runner to get to third base. It was the first scoreless start of Urena's brief big league career and the young righthander has now pitched to a 1.64 ERA in four starts this month. Overall, he sports a 1-4 record with a 2.70 ERA and a 1.35 WHIP in eight appearances (six starts). He is scheduled to pitch against the Rangers on Saturday and he may be worth a flier in deeper leagues considering the way he has been throwing lately.
