Pirates interim closer Mark Melancon earned his fourth save in his team's 7-4 win over the Marlins Saturday, pitching a scoreless ninth inning despite allowing one hit and one walk thanks to a double-play grounder after putting the lead-off man on.

Melancon has surrendered just five earned runs in 49 1/3 innings while striking out 48 batters and walking seven. He'll continue to close while Jason Grilli is on the disabled list.
