Tony Watson slams door on Cubs with four-out save

by Matthew Nystrom | Wed, Apr 26th 10:51pm EDT

Tony Watson pitched 1 1/3 innings on Wednesday to pick up his seventh save of the season, giving up a hit while forcing a double play to end the game.

Fantasy Impact:

After Daniel Hudson surrendered a two-run home run to Anthony Rizzo making it a 6-5 game, manager Clint Hurdle had enough and summoned his closer. Watson gave up a hit to lead off the ninth but was able to induce a double play later on to end the game. He now sits T-2 for saves with Craig Kimbrel (7) and shows no signs of slowing down.
