Ferrer earned the save in Wednesday's 3-1 win over Atlanta, striking out one in a perfect ninth inning.
After Andres Munoz gave up a go-ahead home run in Tuesday's loss, the Mariners turned to Ferrer with a two-run lead in the ninth inning Wednesday. The left-hander made quick work of Atlanta, retiring the side on just 11 pitches to earn his second save this season. Munoz still figures to have a hold on the closing job, despite his struggles this year, though Ferrer has established himself as Seattle's clear number-two option, as Wednesday marked the third straight day that he's pitched. The left-hander's ERA is down to 1.89 through 19 innings this season with a 1.37 WHIP and 16:3 K:BB.
