Corey Knebel picks up win in Brewers comeback victory
by Brad Richter | White Sox Correspondent | Sat, Jun 23rd 8:49am EDT
Corey Knebel (1-0) pitched a scoreless top of the ninth inning to preserve a 1-1 tie with the Cardinals on Friday night and was awarded the win after a walk-off home run from Jesus Aguilar in the bottom of the ninth. Knebel struck out one and did not allow a baserunner while picking up his first win of the season.
Fantasy Impact:
Knebel has pitched well this month with a 1.50 ERA and 15.0 K/9 rate in six innings pitched. Save opportunities have been limited, however, with just two this month but a bonus win on Friday helps out fantasy owners. Keep Knebel in your fantasy lineups as saves can come in bunches sometimes.
