Hodge picked up the save in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Dodgers, working around a walk to pitch a scoreless ninth inning.
The game ended on what would have been a two-run homer by Max Muncy had Pete Crow-Armstrong not timed his jump perfectly to snag the ball over the wall on a highlight reel catch. With that, Hodge secured his fifth save of the year and fourth since Aug. 20. He has continued to be a reliable high-leverage option for the Cubs and is now up to 14 straight scoreless appearances while giving up only five hits in 15 innings over that span. For the year, he owns a 1.66 ERA, 0.89 WHIP and 46:17 K:BB in 38 innings.
