Back to EpisodesAroldis Chapman Ties MLB Save Record
Description
Aroldis Chapman, the Cuban star closer for the Boston Red Sox, made history on Opening Day with his 368th save, tying him with Jonathan Papelbon for eleventh place on the all-time saves list. Last season, Chapman had an impressive All-Star year, boasting a 1.17 ERA, 32 saved games, and 85 strikeouts in 61.1 innings. His combination of a blazing fastball and nasty slider, along with his calm demeanor in high-pressure situations, has fans and opponents alike buzzing. With a minuscule 0.70 WHIP and a .200 batting average against, Chapmans dominance earned him seventh place in American League Cy Young voting. As the season progresses, Red Sox Nation can expect more fireworks from this veteran closer.
