A's rookie reliever Ziegler extends record streak
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) - Athletics rookie reliever Brad Ziegler stretched his scoreless-inning streak to 30 - extending the major league record to begin a career - with a handful of assists Wednesday.

Ziegler pitched three shutout innings in Oakland's 4-3 loss to Kansas City. All three innings ended with double plays.

Ziegler was promoted from Triple-A Sacramento on May 30 and previously broke the scoreless streak record of 25 set by George McQuillan of the Philadelphia Phillies in 1907.
