Diamondbacks' Hector Rondon: Earns seventh hold

Rondon allowed one hit over one scoreless inning in Friday's 6-3 win over the Astros.

Rondon, who picked up his fourth hold in his last six outings, has turned around a dismal start and slowly trimmed an ERA that was over 10.00 as recently as Aug. 25. In his last nine appearances, the right-handed reliever's given up one run over 8.2 innings (1.04 ERA) while striking out 12. Rondon is now pitching high-leverage assignments and has his ERA down to 6.50.
