Corey Knebel earns the save on Saturday
by Dan Harris | White Sox Correspondent | Sat, Jul 9th 10:16pm EDT
Corey Knebel walked one and struck out one in a scoreless ninth inning on Saturday against the Cardinals to earn his 12th save of the season.
Fantasy Impact:
Knebel has pitched relatively well after being demoted from the closer's role, but hasn't often been used in the ninth inning. Seranthony Dominguez pitched in each of the last two games, so was likely unavailable on Saturday. Nevertheless, the fact that Knebel was called upon and succeeded is a huge step in the right direction, and he could see further save chances down the road. But it's unlikely that he'll take back the role to himself in the near term.
