Red Sox\' Kenley Jansen Earns 400th Save 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu May 11, 2023 5:44 am

Kenley Jansen became the seventh player in major league history to earn 400 saves, pinch-hitter Raimel Tapia hit a go-ahead RBI double in the seventh inning, and the Boston Red Sox beat the Atlanta Braves 5-2 on Wednesday night.

Jansen, who had 41 saves last year in his only season with the Braves, faced four batters for his ninth save in 10 chances.

\"I was locked in,\" he said. \"At the end of the day, that\'s an individual thing to accomplish. We\'re here to win ball games and get to the playoffs and try to win a championship. It\'s just another day. You have to stay focused for that. It was an unbelievable experience.\"
