Former Tar Heel ace Zac Gallen pitches gem for Diamondbacks

Posted Aug 10, 2019
Former UNC baseball standout Zac Gallen didn’t take long to get his first win as a member of the Arizona Diamondbacks. Gallen accomplished that in a dominant performance on Wednesday night against the Philadelphia Phillies in which he didn’t allow a single run. Gallen was so good, in fact, that he gave up just one hit and three walks in five innings. (Keeping It Heel)
