Alex Colome Records Second Straight Save
3 years agoMinnesota Twins relief pitcher Alex Colome notched his second consecutive save Thursday against the Astros. Colome entered the game in the ninth with two outs after Danny Coulombe served up a two-run homer and induced a lineout to second base to end the contest. The veteran reliever blew a save on July 26, but has gone a perfect 2-for-2 in save chances since. Colome figures to continue seeing such opportunities but has limited value, given that he pitches for the last-place Twins. He also allows too much hard contact, a problem that has plagued him all season.
