Kyle Finnegan had a heroic effort for the Washington Nationals

When Kyle Finnegan came in, his job was not to get the save, but to make sure the game stayed tied. After the Nats tied the game in the top of the 9th, it was Finnegan’s job to make sure the game went into extra innings.

It was inauspicious start for the Nationals closer, who walked Christian Moore to start his outing. However, Finnegan would bounce back getting a fly out and ground out. Drew Millas, who had an impressive game in his first start of the season would deliver the third out of the inning, throwing out Moore on the bases.
