Anthony Bender pitched a perfect ninth inning on Tuesday against the Nationals to earn his third save of the season.
Fantasy Impact
Bender had been unavailable over the weekend with hip soreness, but Don Mattingly had downplayed the injury. True to form, Bender got three groundball outs on just seven pitches. He's firmly entrenched as the Marlins' closer, at least until Dylan Floro returns. Whether he holds the job long-term is an open question.
