Josh Hader Closes Door For Save Number Nine
4 years agoMilwaukee Brewers star closer Josh Hader surrendered a run on two hits and a wal in one inning Sunday, striking out two and earning a save over Atlanta. Hader gave up a walk and a single to put runners on the corners with one out in the ninth. After a sacrifice fly by Dansby Swanson, he allowed a two-out hit before punching out William Contreras to avoid blowing the save. Hader is still perfect through nine save opportunities despite allowing a run for the first time this month. He's sporting a stellar 1.15 ERA and 28:7 K: BB through 15 2/3 innings this year. He continues to be an elite option for fantasy owners chasing saves and strikeouts.
