RecapRobert Suarez closed out the Rockies in the ninth inning on Friday night, preserving a two-run advantage to notch his fourth save of the season.
Suarez made sure that the Braves’ comeback bid didn’t go for naught, as he pitched around a one-out single from Ezequiel Tovar to work a scoreless frame and put the game in the win column for the Braves. He has proven to be more than capable in the ninth inning while Raisel Iglesias has been sidelined and now sports a minuscule 0.66 ERA, 0.88 WHIP and a 14/2 K/BB ratio over 13 2/3 innings on the season while converting each of his first four save chances.
