Don Gonzales picks up career save #400


Los Angeles, CA - Career saves leader Don Gonzales reached another landmark by logging career save #400 in a Buffalo Blizzard 4-3 win over the Los Angeles Diamond Kings. The 37 yr old right-handed native of Yokosuka, Japan pitched a perfect 9th for the 25th save of the season, and retains the all time saves lead with a new high record. After 9 seasons in the American League with the Memphis Blues Boys, Gonzales signed as a free agent with the Blizzard last year as a 36 yr old veteran. The future Hall of Famer is a 10 time All-Star, a 4-time AL Fireman of the Year and became the oldest all star when selected to the NL squad earlier this season.
