Analyse

The Guardians had runners on second and third with one out in the eighth, prompting the Orioles to turn to Garcia to protect the team's four-run lead. He was able to get out of the inning without yielding a run, ending the frame by striking out Patrick Bailey in three pitches. Garcia came back out for the ninth and allowed two straight singles, but he bounced back by striking out the last two batters he faced to secure the win for Baltimore. His three punchouts matched a season high he set March 30 against the Rangers, and Garcia has converted seven of 13 save chances this year, boasting a 3.03 ERA and 0.96 WHIP over 62.1 innings.
