SF Giants closer shines as mom watches him for first time in MLB

Not only was his four-out save his first since being reinserted into the closer role over Ryan Walker, but it came with Doval’s mother, Rosa, watching from the stands for the first time in his MLB career. It’s something that clearly meant the world to Doval.
