Twins vs. Brewers 5/24 (1 Viewer)

[Pat Patriot]

Fielder hit a 2 run homer off of Baker in the 9th to make the score 6-3 in favor of Minnesota. Nathan came on to get the last 2 outs. Neither ESPN nor Yahoo is crediting Nathan with a save. Is this a mistake? Why wouldnt he get the save?

Yes. What am I missing? 3 run lead or less and he closed the game. Hanrahan got a save with a 3 run lead today for Washington.

only 2 outs, with no one on base...gotta face (or have the possibility of) as many guys as there are outs... 2 outs, no one on means you can only get a save with a 2 run lead...

Thanks. Its nice when someone actually answers your question instead of just being a ####.
