Brusdar Graterol Struggles In Loss
2 years agoLos Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Brusdar Graterol was asked to come into a 1-1 tie in the ninth inning on Sunday. A spot that is typically used for the home team's closer. The right-hander allowed a leadoff double to Ketel Marte to kick off the inning. That was followed by a pair of singles, but Marte was thrown at the plate. Then, Jake McCarthy dropped down a bunt single to push across the go-ahead run. It was a tough four-hit outing for Graterol who clearly didn't have his best stuff in this game. The Dodgers are expected to continue going closer by committee in the ninth inning.
