    Jhoan Duran tossed a perfect ninth inning and picked up the save against the Tigers on Saturday.

    Duran’s save was his 24th of the season. He retired the side in order in the ninth inning without the Tigers hitting the ball out of the infield. Duran has a 1.38 ERA heading into the All-Star break as one of the top closers in all of baseball.

    Luis Campusano hit a walk-off two-run homer in the bottom of the 10th inning to give the Padres a 3-2 win over the Yankees on Friday.

    Campusano also singled. The 27-year-old continued his strong campaign at the plate by taking Paul Blackburn deep in the bottom of the 10th to give the Padres a much-needed win in their quest to clinch one of the final postseason berths in the National League. He’s been limited to just 56 games, but in those contests he’s now hit six homers, driven in 25 runs and slashed .283/.364/.465. You can do a heck of a lot worse than that.

    Mason Miller worked two innings and allowed an unearned run while picking up a win versus the Yankees on Friday.

    It looks like Miller was going to pick up the loss after he gave up an RBI single to Spencer Jones in the top of the 10th. That run was unearned because it was the inherited extra runner, and he struck out four while lowering his ERA to 1.21 and picking up his fifth win of the season.

    Ben Rice went 3-for-4 with a solo homer in an extra-inning loss to the Padres on Friday.

    Rice hit his 36th homer of the season with a solo shot off Walker Buehler; one of only two runs the Yankees were able to score in the contest. The 27-year-old has gone through it over the last couple of months, but it’s hard to complain about that level of production from Rice or really any other player.

    Walker Buehler held the Yankees to just one run, but he didn’t factor into the decision for the Padres on Friday.

    Buehler struck out six, walked two and allowed just three hits in a solid start for the right-hander. The only blemish in turns of run-prevention was a solo homer from Ben Rice in the third inning. After a less-than-spectacular first half of the year, Buehler has appeared to figure it out, and his 4.56 ERA isn’t indicative of how he’s pitched the last few months. He gets the Nationals at home next week.

    Max Fried allowed one run in his 5 2/3 innings, but didn’t factor into the decision Friday against the Padres.

    Fried and Will Warren were set to piggyback, but Fried was able to go nearly six while Warren threw 2 1/3 scoreless inning after he departed. The southpaw struck out four, and he walked just one while allowing just an RBI single to Xander Bogaerts in the second. Fried looked good Friday, and he’ll look to continue to lower his ERA from a solid 2.73 against the Rockies at home next week.

    Lazaro Montes left Friday’s game against the Athletics with left hip soreness.

    Montes injured the hip while trying to make a play on Zack Gelof’s triple. The 21-year-old will likely undergo testing to determine the severity, but there’s a good chance he’ll miss Saturday’s game. Taylor Ward has taken over in the outfield.

    Bryan Baker left Friday’s appearance against the Rangers due to illness.

    Baker clearly wasn’t feeling well, and it affected his pitching with two walks and no outs recorded before leaving. The good news is this isn’t arm-related, so there’s a good chance Baker is closing games for the Rays in the coming days. Tyler Wells — who converted Friday’s chance after Baker exited — would likely get the chance if he’s unavailable this weekend.

    Lazaro Montes exited Friday’s game against the Athletics with an apparent injury.

    Montes came up just short of making a spectacular catch against the wall, and while he was able to continue immediately after, the Mariners took precaution and took the outfielder out a few batters later. The specifics of the injury for the 21-year-old should be available soon.

    Riley O’Brien got the final three outs and was credited with a save Friday against the Rockies.

    O’Brien came in to protect a one-run lead and did just that. The 31-year-old blew his most recent save chance against the Dodgers on Thursday and has not been effective as of late, but he was at least able to convert his 36th save Friday.

    Jordan Romano allowed three runs, blew a save and took a loss against the Cardinals on Sunday.

    Romano gave up a three-run homer to Ivan Herrera that turned a 6-4 lead for Colorado to a 7-6 deficit. The 33-year-old has pitched well prior to Friday’s scuffle, but this is was a less-than-friendly reminder of how much Romano has struggled the past few seasons. He should remain the closer for Colorado, but it’s damning with faint praise.
