Miami Marlins – The Marlins sent A.J. Puk right back out there after blowing the save the night before and he responded with a scoreless inning for his 15th save of the season. It was important for Puk to lock down this save after failing in his two previous opportunities but it also shows that the Marlins still have confidence in him.
Hierarchy remains: Puk | Floro | Brazoban.
Detroit Tigers – Alex Lange threw a perfect 9th inning to pick up his 13th save of the season and finish off a combined no-hitter with Matt Manning and Jason Foley.
Hierarchy remains: *Lange | Foley | Cisnero.
* = closer-by-committee
New York Yankees — Michael King relieved starter Gerrit Cole and recorded the last five outs of the game to pick up his 6th save of the season. The Yankees are still in committee mode and this save moves King back onto the hierarchy.
Updated hierarchy: *Holmes | Kahnle | King.
* = closer-by-committee
Boston Red Sox – Brandon Walter pitched the final three innings of a 10-3 Red Sox win to earn his first save.
Hierarchy remains: Jansen | Martin | Winckowski.
