Austin Pruitt tosses five perfect innings Friday versus White Sox

Austin Pruitt did not factor into the decision after allowing zero baserunners while striking out two in five innings of Friday's 5-3 loss to the White Sox.

Fantasy Impact:

Pruitt, who has been used as a reliever all season, shined as the starting arm for the A's on Friday by opening the game with five perfect innings. With this surprising showing, the right-hander lowered his ERA to 4.24 and his WHIP to 1.03 in 46 2/3 innings this season. It is unknown whether or not Oakland will consider keeping him in the rotation, but he definitely turned in a performance that would warrant that.
