EDGE Analysis

Hand was called upon to finish the eighth inning, which he did by recording a strikeout with the tying run on deck. He allowed a weakly-hit single to lead off the ninth but mowed down the next three hitters to finish off the contest. The dominant Hand now owns a 2.21 ERA and sits atop the American League in saves.
