Ziegler entered Saturday night's game in the eighth inning with the bases loaded and none out and struck out the side in Boston's 6-3 win over the Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
All 10 of Ziegler's pitches were in the strike zone as his performance preserved Boston's lead, setting up Craig Kimbrel to close the door on the Diamondbacks in the ninth. With Junichi Tazawa showing signs of losing effectiveness as an eighth-inning bridge, guys like Ziegler and Matt Barnes are being entrusted to setup duty.
