Barlow saved Thursday's 6-4 win against the Mariners, throwing a 1-2-3 ninth inning.
One day after blowing the save against Houston, manager Mike Matheny once again turned to Barlow, who made quick work of the top of Seattle's order on just eight pitches. The 28-year-old-righty has endured a tumultuous August that's presented more positives than negatives, featuring two wins, three saves and a hold in addition to three blown saves. Barlow is the favorite to pitch the ninth until he falters or Greg Holland returns.
