Iglesias (4-1) blew the save but picked up the win in Tuesday's 8-6 extra-inning victory over the Twins, allowing one hit over 1.1 scoreless innings. He struck out two.
The Atlanta closer entered the game with two outs and the tying run on second base in the eighth inning, and Trevor Larnach dumped a single into left field to tag Iglesias with his third blown save of the season and first since May 3. The right-hander then worked a clean ninth and saw his offense erupt for four runs in the top of the 10th. Iglesias hasn't given up an earned run since June 16, a stretch of 26.1 innings in which he's delivered a 0.27 WHIP and 32:2 K:BB.
