Brad Boxberger Converts First Save
2 years agoChicago Cubs relief pitcher Brad Boxberger was asked to shut the door in the ninth inning versus the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday. This comes one day after fellow relief pitcher Michael Fulmer blew the game. Boxberger did excellent with three strikeouts and only allowing one hit while securing the one-run victory for Chicago. He holds a 1.42 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 7/2 K/BB ratio over 6 1/3 innings this season. Boxberger could very well see more save chances if Fulmer continues to struggle.
