Kittredge struck out two and did not issue a hit or a walk over two-thirds of an inning as he picked up the save in an 8-5 win over the Red Sox on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Kittredge wasn't needed immediately heading into the ninth with the Rays comfortably leading 8-3, but things changed quickly after Dietrich Enns allowed four straight hitters to reach and two to score before with one out. Kittredge was called upon to prevent any further damage and fanned the only two batters he faced. The Rays haven't gone with a set closer all year long, but Kittredge has been excellent with a 1.31 ERA, 0.89 WHIP and 69:14 K:BB over 62 innings and figures to continue in the mix for high-leverage opportunities.
