Another Frontier-to-majors trip

The Arizona Diamondbacks called up left-handed relief pitcher Clay Zavada, pictured, from Double-A Mobile on Tuesday. Zavada played in the Frontier League last year for the Southern Illinois Miners and probably holds the record for fastest journey from the FL to the majors.

Zavada pitched in two games against the Wild Things last year, getting a win in an 8-3 Miners victory in Marion, Ill. on June 4 and earning a save in a 5-3 game at Consol Energy Park on June 11.
