Pirates reliever Mark Melancon recorded his fourth save in a row Wednesday against the Brewers, following a late rally to put Pittsburgh up.
Melancon entered the game following a three-run top of the ninth, and retired the Brewers with little trouble. He allowed a two-out single, but then recorded an easy groundball to close out the inning.
Melancon has five saves in six chances since stepping in for an injured Jason Grilli at the start of the month. He has a 1.42 ERA on the season as a whole.
