Fantasy Impact
Entering the game to replace Emerson Hancock, Criswell’s outing was a masterclass in efficiency and control, helping the Mariners secure a dominant 8-0 shutout victory.

Notably, he recorded his first save of the season, entering with a lead but satisfying the "three-inning relief" criteria for a save in a blowout.
