WASHINGTON (AP) — Washington Nationals closer Sean Doolittle added to his career high by getting his 27th save — and there are more than 1½ months still to go in 2019.
He’s already easily eclipsed his total for number of games finished in a season, too.
After pitching for the fifth time in seven games and hanging on to save Washington’s 7-6 victory over the Cincinnati Reds, Doolittle acknowledged that he is feeling tired.
