A's switch pitcher Venditte tops D-backs for 1st win
(The Sports Xchange) – Oakland’s Pat Venditte took a piece of history away from his first Major League victory Sunday. The switch pitcher threw two scoreless innings in the Athletics’ 7-4 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Sunday at Chase Field, benefiting when shortstop Marcus Semien’s two-run single broke a tie with two outs in the 11th inning. “To get this first one was very special,” Venditte said.
