Shintaro Fujinami Picks Up First Save
1 year agoBaltimore Orioles right-handed pitcher Shintaro Fujinami picked up his first major league save on Sunday in a 5-3 extra-innings win over the Seattle Mariners. Fujinami tossed a perfect frame while punching out one. Fujinami has been pitching better since being acquired from the Oakland A's, but he still holds a 5.23 ERA in Baltimore and has an ugly 7.99 ERA on the season as a whole. He has good stuff, but his command has held him back (5.8 BB/9). The 29-year-old rookie has no fantasy value as this save was a result of Felix Bautista needing rest and the game going to extra innings.
