He also came through at the plate when he hit the backend of consecutive doubles with Peter Ahn in the third inning off Grapplers startintg pitcher Devin Eyre.
Ahn scored on the double.
Jake Brentz and Ernesto Barbosa both retired all three batters they faced in the eighth and ninth, respectively.
The save, of course, was Barbosa's first of the season.
