Jose A. Ferrer Records Fourth Save
Washington Nationals relief pitcher Jose A. Ferrer locked down his fourth save of the season on Thursday in a 9-3 win over the Mets, allowing one hit and striking out three in a four-out save. This isn't a typical score you'd expect after a save was recorded, but Ferrer entered the game with a 5-3 lead in the top of the eighth before the Nationals tacked on four additional runs in the bottom of the inning. The lefty has now successfully shut the door in four straight save opportunities and hasn't allowed a run since Aug. 3, a span of seven scoreless appearances. The 25-year-old remains the favorite closing option in Washington for the time being after Kyle Finnegan was dealt at the trade deadline.
