Liam Hendriks locks up the save as Oakland advances to ALDS

Liam Hendriks picked up the save on Thursday in Game 3 of the A's Wild Card victory as he allowed just one hit with three strikeouts over a scoreless ninth inning.

Fantasy Impact:

After looking very shaky in his previous outing on Wednesday when he threw 49 pitches over 1 2/3 innings, Hendriks looked like his old self. He gave up a leadoff single to James McCann to start things off then fanned the next three batters in order to shut the door. This was Oakland's first victory in a winner-take-all playoff game since Game 7 of the 1973 World Series.
