Phillies closer Ken Giles worked a perfect ninth inning to record his ninth save of the season in the 4-2 win over the Marlins on Saturday. The young right-hander struck out a batter and needed 17 pitches to retire the side in order.
Giles has successfully converted all nine save opportunities since he became the primary closer for the Phillies at the end of July. He has allowed just one run over that stretch.
