He's earned more wins (three) than saves (two) over his last eight appearances, with each of those wins coming after he was charged with a blown save.

Impact The right-hander needed only 10 pitches (eight strikes) to wrap things up, striking out pinch-hitters Nolan Jones and Harold Castro en route to his eighth straight successful save conversion.

Bounces back for 25th save Doval struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the save in Wednesday's 2-0 win over the Mariners.

Impact Doval gave up four runs over one inning in a non-save situation his last time out, so it was positive to see him back in form Wednesday. He's 25-for-27 in save chances this season, and his steady pitching earned him a spot on the National League's All-Star roster. He's pitched to a 2.70 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 55:17 K:BB over 40 innings, though six of the 12 runs he's allowed this year have come over his last 10 appearances.

JULY 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

This was the first time he's allowed multiple runs since April 14 against the Tigers, when he gave up three unearned runs over 1.2 innings. The bad outing spiked his ERA to 2.77 with a 1.10 WHIP and 54:17 K:BB through 39 innings this season. Given his strong performance and track record of success with 24 saves in 26 tries, this one poor showing is unlikely to cost him closing duties.
