Iglesias (5-2) took the loss Sunday against the Dodgers, allowing five runs on four hits and a walk while striking out one in just two-thirds of an inning. Iglesias was working in a tie game and retired two of the first three hitters he faced with Will Smith hitting a triple. Atlanta opted to intentionally walk Shohei Ohtani to get to Mookie Betts, who put the Dodgers ahead with a base hit. Iglesias was unable to get the final out, as Freddie Freeman singled home another two runs and Teoscar Hernandez mashed a two-run homer. It was a truly shocking performance from Iglesias who had not allowed an earned run since June 16 and hadn't allowed more than two hits since April 24. Iglesias is still having a career year with a 1.87 ERA, 0.72 WHIP and 64:12 K:BB in 62.2 innings and needs four more saves to set a new career high.

Iglesias (5-1) picked up the win Sunday over the Blue Jays, giving up an unearned run on two hits and a walk over two innings of relief. He struck out one. The Atlanta closer entered a tie game in the top of the 10th inning with a save chance no longer on the table, and while Iglesias allowed the phantom runner to score in the 11th, his offense walked it off in the bottom of that frame. Iglesias hasn't been tagged with an earned run since June 16, and on the season he sports a dazzling 1.18 ERA, 0.66 WHIP and 62:11 K:BB through 61 innings. He's three saves shy of tying his career high of 34, a mark he reached in both 2019 and 2021.

Iglesias earned the save in Friday's 3-1 win versus Toronto, pitching a scoreless inning with three strikeouts while allowing two hits. The Atlanta closer's scoreless appearances streak now stands at 21, as he worked around a two-out double by Joey Loperfido in this 15-pitch outing. During the streak, Iglesias has accumulated 31 strikeouts against just three walks across 24.1 innings while securing 10 saves. Overall, the 34-year-old has pitched to a 1.22 ERA, 0.63 WHIP and 61:10 K:BB while going 31-for-34 in save opportunities across 59 innings this season.

Iglesias earned a save against the Rockies on Wednesday, allowing one walk while striking out two batters in one scoreless inning. Iglesias had a three-run lead to work with in the ninth frame and had little trouble taking care of business, issuing a harmless two-out walk and retiring the side on 15 pitches. The veteran closer picked up his 30th save of the campaign -- the fifth time he's reached that mark in his career. Iglesias has a shot of reaching his career-high tally of 34 saves, which he posted in both 2019 and 2021.

Iglesias struck out one in a perfect ninth inning Tuesday to record his 29th save of the season in a 3-0 win over the Rockies. The right-hander fired seven of 12 pitches for strikes as he collected his first save since Aug. 22. Iglesias has gone 26 straight appearances without giving up an earned run, posting a minuscule 0.30 WHIP in 30.1 innings over that stretch with a 36:3 K:BB. His next successful conversion will give Iglesias his fifth career 30-save campaign.
