Barlow recorded his 15th save of the season in Friday's 3-1 win over the Tigers, working a perfect ninth inning without striking out a batter.
The 28-year-old has converted seven straight chances since his last blown save Aug. 25. Barlow now sports a 2.40 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 86:26 K:BB through 71.1 innings with five wins and 14 holds in addition to his saves, and he's emerged as Kansas City's top bullpen arm this season.
