Jacob Latz is the first big leaguer since 2020 to have more than 4 saves of 2+ innings in one season. He has 7. Dan Quisenberry had 75 of them from 1982-1984. 😮
#Rangers Jacob Latz has his 7th save this season of at least two innings. Mariano Rivera’s career-high was two. Trevor Hoffman’a career total was seven. Billy Wagner, Kenley Jansen, Aroldis Chapman, and Craig Kimberly combine for six in their careers.

Ben Zobrist (a switch-hitter) recalls a moment early in his career when Joe Maddon recommended something unorthodox: bat right-handed against Mike Mussina... Zobrist would double off the Hall of Famer in his second at-bat of the game.
Ben Zobrist on his ability to play nearly every position on the field: "It just was something I looked at as how do I bring the best value to the field... It's uncomfortable in a lot of ways as a player."

Brad Keller has a UCL tear in his right elbow. He’s likely done for the season.
