This is from the Fox Sports page on the Cubs game, and I want to know what the 'H' in the parentheses is for by the two relievers line scores? Any help- wiki don't mention it (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box_score_(baseball)), and I can't figures what it might be???

They "H"elped? (and I know it'll be painfully obvious... :D )

It's a hold.

Details: A Hold is credited any time a relief pitcher enters a game in a Save Situation, records at least one out, and leaves the game never having relinquished the lead.

What is RAPP? One of my fantasy leagues has it, I've googled to no avail.

Thanks SA; my son actually knew it was a 'hold', but incorrectly defined it as coming into a game with men in scoring position, and not giving up the run. I'll be sure to correct him!
