Dennis Santana earns hold on Tuesday
by David Leisering | Pirates Correspondent | Tue, Mar 31st 10:53pm EDT
Dennis Santana pitched the eighth inning on Tuesday and allowed one hit to preserve a 6-3 lead and earn his first hold of the season. The Pirates went on to win by an 8-3 final over the Reds.
Fantasy Impact:
Santana pitched the eighth inning and Gregory Soto tossed the ninth in, what turned out to be, a non-save situation. Santana has now pitched in four of Pittsburgh's first five games, but the fact that he was used in the eighth signifies that the closer's role is certainly not solely his. It's an interesting situation to monitor over the next few games.
