Wade Davis Earns His Second Save On Saturday
3 years agoKansas City Royals relief pitcher Wade Davis recorded the final out in the team's 9-8 win over the Detroit Tigers on Saturday to earn his second save of the year. Greg Holland started out the ninth inning, but was removed after allowing two runs and recording two outs. Davis has struggled to the tune of a 7.67 ERA and 1.56 WHIP this year. He recorded a save on Opening Day and blew a save opportunity in mid-May. After Saturday's game, he's now 2-for-3 in save opportunities on the year. Holland should still be considered the frontrunner for saves for now. Scott Barlow, who has five saves on the year, is probably the next man up, but Davis could be next in line after Barlow.
