Tommy Kahnle Picks Up Two-Inning Save Thursday
1 year agoNew York Yankees relief pitcher Tommy Kahnle picked up his second save of the season in the nightcap of a double-header against the Boston Red Sox. Kahnle tossed the final two innings of this one, coming in with the Yankees up 6-5. They would score two in the top of the ninth to gain a three-run lead, and the team decided to continue with Kahnle instead of going to usual closer Clay Holmes. Holmes has been good of late, so it may be a matter of giving him extra rest since the lead was three runs. Either way, Kahnle has been solid all year and is worth an add in deeper category leagues where holds matter.
