Braves' Raisel Iglesias: Needs eight pitches for eighth save

Iglesias collected the save against the Cubs on Wednesday, issuing one walk in a hitless and scoreless ninth inning.

Iglesias came out of the bullpen for a second consecutive night, tasked with protecting Atlanta's 4-1 lead. His leadoff walk to Michael Busch was negated by Michael Conforto's groundball double play, and the Atlanta closer needed just one more pitch to get Pete Crow-Armstrong to pop out, securing Atlanta's 30th win of the season. Iglesias has converted all eight of his save opportunities this season and has given up just one hit and one walk over four outings since coming back from shoulder inflammation.
