Morning Sports Update: John Farrell says Brad Ziegler has ‘been a godsend’
Good morning, sports fans.
John Farrell discusses Red Sox pitcher Brad Ziegler, the Sox beat the Twins, and the Celtics sign Gerald Green.
John Farrell: Brad Ziegler has ‘been a godsend’: “He’s been a godsend, to be honest,” the Red Sox manager said after another 1-2-3 ninth inning from Ziegler. “It’s a comfortable inning. It’s balls on the ground. I think he’s given up one hit in the 20-plus hitters he’s faced. He’s very calm. He’s experienced back there. His addition back there has given us a huge boost in light of the injuries to Koji and Craig.” (WEEI.com)
