Astros reliever Josh Fields recorded his first save of the season Monday at home against Boston. Fields held down a 2-0 lead by getting the final four outs.
Fields struck out four batters over 1 1/3 innings and 20 pitches as he mowed down the Red Sox in their attempt to come back. Fields' ERA is now at 5.85. Fields is one of several options to close games for Houston now that they've traded Jose Veras.
