OAKLAND -- A’s left-hander Hogan Harris and Astros right-hander Spencer Arrighetti were never teammates in college, though the two share a connection as the lone two active MLB players drafted out of University of Louisiana at Lafayette.

On Monday night, the two former Ragin’ Cajuns faced off as opposing starting pitchers, marking the first time two starters from UL-Lafayette have matched up against each other in a Major League game.

Harris got the best of his fellow alum, racking up seven strikeouts across 6 2/3 scoreless innings in Oakland’s 4-0 victory at the Coliseum. Arrighetti, meanwhile, allowed all four runs scored by the A’s on seven hits and one walk with three strikeouts.

Austin Adams, Lucas Erceg and Mason Miller allowed but one hit over the final 2 1/3 innings to preserve the lead.
