Alex Colome Records 10th Save
3 years agoMinnesota Twins relief pitcher Alex Colome picked up his 10th save of the season Monday against the Tigers. Colome got two quick groundouts but put two baserunners on, one on a throwing error before inducing a flyout to lock up the win for Minnesota. The righty is closing out games with success for the Twins, even though it occurred much later in the season than anyone expected. Colome is 8-for-10 on save chances in August, with just four runs allowed in 12 1/3 innings. It remains to be seen if the Twins can keep up this level of play, though Colome should be considered a solid closing option as long as they do.
