Juan Nicasio earns first save Monday
by Mike Maher | Tue, May 21st 10:15am EDT
Phillies reliever Juan Nicasio allowed one hit over 2/3 of an inning to earn his first save of the season in Monday's extra-inning win over the Chicago Cubs.
Fantasy Impact:
Nicasio entered the game with a 5-4 lead in the 10th inning after regular closer Hector Neris pitched in a tie game in the ninth inning. While Neris has the closer's job locked down for the time being, Nicasio has been pitching his way into more high-leverage opportunities over the last few weeks.
