John King earns first career save Saturday

by Nicholas Rodriguez | Marlins Correspondent | Sun, May 10th 5:39am EDT

John King recorded the final out of Saturday’s 8-7 win over the Washington Nationals to earn the first save of his career.

Fantasy Impact:

King entered the game with two outs and a runner on first base after Michael Petersen ran into trouble in the ninth inning. Tasked with facing CJ Abrams, King induced a flyout to center field to end the threat. He has been dominant this season, posting a 0.54 ERA and 0.54 WHIP across 16.2 innings. With three holds already on the year, King should continue to see high-leverage opportunities given how effective he has been on the mound.
