by David Leisering | Diamondbacks Correspondent | Tue, May 12th 12:09am EDT
Paul Sewald pitched around a hit batter in the ninth inning on Monday to earn his ninth save in nine chances this season. Arizona defeated Texas, 1-0.
Fantasy Impact:
Sewald plunked Corey Seager with two outs in the ninth inning, but got Josh Jung to fly out to center for his ninth save of the season. The righthander ranks third in the National League in saves, trailing only San Diego's Mason Miller (12) and St. Louis' Riley O'Brien (11). Sewald has been nearly flawless in his nine save opportunities, allowing only two baserunners (one hit, one hit batter) while striking out 13 in nine innings. Overall, he is 0-3 with a 3.07 ERA and a 0.68 WHIP in 17 appearances.
