Phil Murphy Records 300th Save, Tames Toronto 1-0
Monday, September 12th, 2135: Rancheros closer Phil Murphy has faced many pressure situations, but rarely does the pressure affect him. Today was no different in a 1-0 Colorado victory as the 31-year-old pitcher registered a historic milestone - his 300th save of his career. "We feel that a lead is in good hands whenever Phil gets the ball," one of his teammates said after the game. Murphy reached the 300-save plateau by holding the Toronto Marlboros to no runs and 1 hit in 1 innings of work.

Murphy has totaled 300 saves in his career. In 587 games, he has a 58-57 won-lost mark, 3.56 ERA and 704 strikeouts in 804.2 innings.
