Cubs' Adbert Alzolay: Picks up 17th save

Alzolay picked up the save Saturday against the Royals, allowing one hit while striking out one batter over a scoreless inning.

Alzolay allowed a one-out single to MJ Melendez after being brought in to protect a two-run lead in the ninth but needed just five pitches to get through the final two batters and secure his 17th save. The 28-year-old right-hander has now converted his last 13 save opportunities, with his lone blown save coming back on July 4. He's also issued only two walks since the start of July.
