Edwin Díaz struck out two in a hitless ninth to earn his fourth save Thursday against the Cardinals.
Díaz issued a leadoff walk and got just one whiff on five swings tonight, but it all worked out. He’s still had only one one-two-three inning in eight appearances, that coming in his season debut against the Astros on March 28. Since he’s thrown 34 pitches the last two days, he should be down Friday, potentially resulting in a save chance for Ryne Stanek.
