Foster Griffin Pitches in Bulk Role During Game 4 of ALCS

Foster Griffin didn't factor in the decision after giving up one run on four hits and no walks over 3.2 innings during Game 4 of the ALCS against the Rays on Saturday, striking out five. Manager Stephen Vogt deployed him to follow opener Shawn Armstrong after Griffin previously allowed two runs over four innings starting Game 1. Having thrown 44 pitches, he seems likely available for Games 6 and 7.
