RecapJacob Webb gave up one run and struck out one batter in one inning of work to secure the save on Wednesday against the Rockies.
The Cubs called on Webb for their first save opportunity in more than a month and in the wake of Daniel Palencia’s latest trip to the injured list. Before he came on, Ethan Roberts let this game get off the rails in the eighth inning and trusted lefty Caleb Thielbar had to come in and to settle things down. Then, Webb let up a home run to Kyle Karros before closing it out and it’ll be interesting to see who gets the next save chance between these two.
