Fantasy Impact
Diego Castillo and Nick Anderson were used earlier in the game tonight, so Fairbanks came on for the save. He became the 13th different Tampa reliever to earn a save in 2020, having none gotten any during the regular season. The bullpen is obviously one of the Rays' strengths this year. They'll continue to mix-and-match throughout their playoff run.
Pete Fairbanks gave up one run (no earned) on two hits and no walks while striking out one through one inning to record his second save in an 8-7 win over the Dodgers on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Fairbanks came into the game in the 11th inning with a two-run lead as the Rays had already used nine pitchers including closer Emilio Pagan. Overall, the 25-year-old has a 7.94 ERA with a 1.82 WHIP through 17 games this season and probably won't see another save opportunity.
