Jhoan Duran Earns Extra-Innings Win Monday
1 year agoMinnesota Twins closer Jhoan Duran picked up his first win of the season in Monday's 7-5 extra-innings win over the Astros. Duran came in to pitch the ninth inning with the game tied 5-5. He allowed a leadoff single but then induced a groundball double-play and a lineout to end the inning. He stayed in to pitch the 10th up by two and delivered a 1-2-3 inning with two more strikeouts. The 25-year-old flamethrower has been a solid fantasy contributor to this point, converting seven of eight save opportunities with a 1.27 ERA, 12.23 K/9 rate, and 3.80 BB/9 rate.
