Aroldis Chapman pitched out a bases loaded jam against the Braves for his 10th save Saturday.
AI Summary
Aroldis Chapman recorded his 10th save against the Braves, escaping a bases-loaded jam despite being hit on the ankle by a comebacker.
There wouldn't have been a jam, except Andruw Monasterio airmailed a throw from short to first on what should have been the final out of the game. Chapman then walked two to lead the bases. Ha-Seong Kim came up and hit a 104-mph comebacker off Chapman's right ankle. Fortunately, though, Chapman was able to gather himself, run down the ball and make the play at first. Chapman didn't seem to favor the ankle on his way off the field, so hopefully he won't miss any time. The save tonight was his 377th, moving him into a tie with Joe Nathan for 10th place on the all-time list.
