PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The Philadelphia Phillies signed right-handed reliever Seranthony Domínguez to a two-year contract extension with a club option for 2025.

Terms of the deal announced Thursday were not immediately available.

Domínguez, 28, made a career-high 54 appearances in 2022, posting a 3.00 ERA with nine saves, a 1.137 WHIP and 61 strikeouts in 51 innings. He held opponents to a .197 batting average. Domínguez went 2-0 with one save and a 1.69 ERA in nine playoff appearances for the National League champions.

A native of the Dominican Republic, Domínguez is 11-10 with 25 saves, a 3.14 ERA and 165 strikeouts in 135 games since beginning his career with the Phillies in 2018.

With Domínguez’s extension, the Phillies have now agreed to terms with all arbitration-eligible players for the 2023 season.
