Maurer recorded his fifth save of the season in a 6-3 win over the White Sox on Friday. He allowed one hit and struck out one.
It was a nice response from the young reliever after he gave up a walk-off homer Thursday. He did give up a base hit to lead off the ninth inning, but stranded him in scoring position to end the game. He should continue to obtain save opportunities as long as Carter Capps (elbow) remains on the DL, and perhaps beyond.
