Louis Varland escapes with second save of season Saturday versus Guardians

Blue Jays right-hander Louis Varland flirted with danger but nailed down his second save of the season in a 5-3 win over the Guardians on Saturday.

Fantasy Impact:

Varland was awarded the first save opportunity since the Blue Jays removed Jeff Hoffman from the closer's role this week, and he allowed one earned run on three hits and a walk. However, he was able to strike out the final two batters he faced and stranded the bases loaded for his second save of the season, and of his career. Varland had not allowed an earned run this season prior to Saturday's outing and now sports a 0.64 ERA on the season through 13 outings and 14 innings pitched.
