3 years agoMilwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Brad Boxberger was asked to take the ball in the ninth inning during Friday's contest against the Cincinnati Reds. The Brewers were forced to use someone else in the ninth inning with Josh Hader out on the paternity list. Right-hander Devin Williams was expected to get the nod in the ninth, but instead pitched the eighth inning. Boxberger was a little shaky, but was able to convert the save on Friday. The right-hander does have closer experience, but is expected to slide back into a setup role once Hader returns.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller
