Jeff Hoffman Closes Sweep With A Save
23 seconds agoToronto Blue Jays relief pitcher Jeff Hoffman gave up a run to the Nationals on Wednesday afternoon, but he still closed Toronto's 4-2 victory with his third save of the season. The 32-year-old righty entered the game in the ninth with a 4-1 lead and got the first two outs in quick succession before running into a little bit of trouble. He gave up a single, a double, and another single before his catcher Tyler Heineman threw out pinch-runner Jacob Young trying to steal second base to end the game. It was the first run allowed by Hoffman in his four games this season, and he is a perfect 3-for-3 in save opportunities. He will remain the team's primary closer as they head on a 10-game road trip to New York, Boston, and Baltimore starting on Friday.
