Andrés Machado delivered a stellar performance on July 20th, throwing a scoreless 9th inning to lock down his 21st save of the season against the Fighters. The Buffaloes’ elite closer showed great composure on the mound. Machado needed 18 pitches to handle the final frame, allowing one hit but remaining completely unfazed as he issued zero walks. Operating with prime focus, he picked up a key strikeout to shut the door with absolute authority. This dominant, scoreless outing kept his season ERA at a phenomenal 1.14, firmly solidifying his status as a highly reliable and lethal shutdown weapon in Buffaloes’ bullpen.
